Wonder if there are any pics of that - especially the, "...piece of limestone carved into the shape of a megalith..."
It does get a mention in the interim report from 2005 but no pic see .

Of course if they made a miniature model of the final structure of Stonehenge they would be able to work out the measurements and the curving shape a bit like Atkinson did in his mock-up of how to raise the stones in Pete's CD thing.. they could also use chalk as well, there were a few carved chalk bits from Windmill hill.....
