I did a weblog piece on Beeby henge in Leicestershire. It holds a special fascination with me; it being where I grew up, before moving out.

Beeby (all saints) now defunct, sits upon a henge monument, with a holy well @ its roadside. was this a direct christianisation of a pagan site? I am intrigued as to the epidemiology of this; just how many are there out there? Avebury perhaps remains the most immfammy of the lot.

Cheers,

yes - they built a '5 Miler' chapel into the Inner South Circle and at the same time Avebury's most impressive monolith, the Obelisk, mysteriously vanished without trace...

perhaps this thread should be renamed 'circles under attack'?
