Abstract:
NT 939335 etc. An area about 5km x 4 includes hengiform monuments, pit alignments, standing stones, isolated pits, and linear features, a number of which have been sampled. Pit alignments, one double, were dug in the Late Neo and may form large 'ritual' enclosures. The seven henges vary in size, orientation, and internal arrangement, at least some being used for burials. An 'avenue' passes through one henge. The complex was in use for perhaps 700 years, running through the E.
