Thanks for that link to British history. Spent a couple of hours going thro those notes at the Bath library. Northstoke is the one with a scratch dial, the church also skewed from the e/w line so it must be sitting on earlier foundations - theres a villa to the right of it. Bitton church is supposed to sit on a "heathen" temple, translate to r/b water shrine, it has all those vanished stones nearby, and the churches round Bath begin to look interesting. Have a look at Abson church on the web - Pucklechurch, or Pucelancycan, was a hunting lodge.... Also more stones appear at Tadwick,(19th c map) which would probably be right for the a crossing/track of the A46 valley to Charmy Down from the Langridge..

Bitton church is fascinating with a 95ft long aisleless Anglo-Saxon nave thought to have originally been even longer. Fragments of carved rood survive. Roman road Via Julia passed through Bitton. Will shut up now or someone will moan about being off timeline.
