Hi Mazzareth, Glad you have a good walk, have you been up Solsbury Hill? if you look back to Bathampton Down you can see what I suppose are called 'celtic field' boundaries, have a photo somewhere but its not really stones...
Just discovered this below, (the three Suleva are in the museum, also have a photo of that)

When you come to a crossroads you're on the site where the stone carving of the 3 Sulevae (3 mothers) was discovered - Romano British but maybe marking an ancient shrine to Sul?

I go up Solsbury Hill quite regularly. It blows the cobwebs away. The last time I was up there I had to call the RSPCA out because I found a deer stuck in a fence. I had to run back down the hill to get my mobile as I left it at home because I wanted a quiet walk….sods law.
The RSPCA guy thought I was Mental going up Solsbury hill on such a crappy day.

Thanks for all the info moss.
