Abstract:
The area between the A344 and the Fargo Plantation, to the north-west of Stonehenge, was surveyed by English Heritage in April 2009 as part of the Stonehenge World Heritage Site (WHS) Landscape Project. Further details were added in 2010. The survey area contains the earthworks of part of the Cursus Barrow Group, sections of a post-medieval road and two dewponds, and early 20th-century military training facilities. The Cursus Barrow Group comprises a linear arrangement of late Neolithic and Early Bronze Age round barrows, 10 of which are described here (Amesbury 43 to Amesbury 52). The group continues west through Fargo Plantation, where the trees prevented full survey, and includes the 'Monarch of the Plain' (Amesbury 55) and several other barrows, which are the subject of a separate report (Komar and Bishop 2010).
