You can't look at Silbury without acknowledging that water is core. Understanding Silbury means understanding ebb and flow.
Pity all the action was up there. Hope the talk goes well. Looks like I'll be buying the BA.
The answer's in the moat! :)

And you were spot on.
A packed hall of people sat attentively for Steve’s ground breaking research on the springs and fluctuating water levels and courses around Avebury. He devoted a large section of his talk to identifying the springs which feed the Silbury ditch – the findings of this research were particularly impressive. Am not going to reproduce his talk here other than to say I found it enthralling and will endeavour to buy a copy of the British Archaeology magazine tomorrow so that I can refer back to it when the need arises.
Excellent work by Steve Marshall who went out in all weathers, observing, measuring and recording.
