hmm and I was just reading little snippets about the Conquer barrow on the edge of the Mount Pleasant henge (and there's silbury on the edge of the palisaded enclosures). Oh no, don't tell me Silbury was just the cheap seats for the goings on inside.

The classification does just seem to based on size... I'd have thought the Conquer Barrow should be counted alongside the ones at Knowlton and Marden, if only because its a gert mound next t a 'super-henge'. Apparently not gert enough...
