The flat top is the same diameter as Stonehenge, which once stood on there.
It looked spiffing in those days. It was used as a pigpen as the original builders, the Baconite people, worshipped them.
The stones were subsequently removed and re-erected on Salisbury Plain, near to the Baconite feasting centre at Woodhenge. They found it easy as they had anti-gravity. If you look carefully you can see slight gaps between the lintels at Stonehenge, this being due to the fact the reconstructed version's diameter is 8 inches too big, the result of a failure of communication regarding the true length of a megalithic yard. The project manager paid the ultimate price and was buried at Amesbury in a cramped position, his grave being deliberately constructed 8 inches too short, a deliberate and brilliant ironic message to the future by the chief Baconmeister.
Henge in early English means pigpen. Hence, it's original name, Stane-pigpen. Archaeologists have supressed the Truth.

eer, I'll 'ave 'e for plagiarism ;-)

Anyway, we've moved on and are now developing a new theory based on the pudding tradition of East Anglia (see latest pics by moss on the homepage). Puddingstones are incredibly ugly things, and the puddingstone here - http://www.themodernantiquarian.com/img_fullsize/73173.jpg actually gave its name to Ugley not far from Stanstead.

Wasn't long before the pudding tradition spread westwards where it came into contact with the Baconite People. Needless to say, the Baconites were puddinged out by the whole pudding concept and built Silbury in the shape of a humongous one (pudding that is). Whether or not it had a sprig of holly on top is still open to question, but there are reports of mistletoe being found in its interior.
