This is what Stukeley has to say about Winterbourne Bassett in </I>Abury</I>:

"At Winterbourne-basset, a little north of Abury, in a field northwest of the church upon elevated ground, is
a double circle of stones concentric, 60 cubits diameter.
The two circles are near one another, so that one may walk between. Many of the stones have of late been
carryíd away. West of it is a single, broad, flat, and high stone, standing by itself. And about as far northward
from the circle, in a ploughíd field, is a barrow set round with, or rather composíd of large stones. I take this
double circle to have been a family chapel, as we may call it, to an archdruid dwelling near thereabouts, whilst
Abury was his cathedral."

So there`s <B>two</B> stone circles there!

That`s why, when people visit, they can`t work out how the stones make a circle.

The site was supposed to be excavated this year as past of the Negotiating Avebury project, but I think it`s been postponed.
