It's some years now since we last discussed Silbaby and I haven't even thought much about it for most of those years since I must admit. I last recall that core samples had been taken and the next stage was to date it. Anyone know if that ever took place and if any conclusions were formed as to whether it was a junior Silbury or just a load of dumped earth possibly from the side of Waden Hill when the road went in?


Hi Roy, I think the result was that the mound wasn't prehistoric.
I'm not sure what the conclusion was in terms of how it got there, although I do seem to remember something about waste from the road, as you've mentioned.

I will try to find more info.
