Another question from confused.. is the long barrow (which seems to have had a haircut, it seems somewhat shaved)) next to the Beckhampton roundabout the Long Stones (on this site) or could it not be better named as Longstones Barrow, (Burl)?
to quote "the titanic Longstones Barow 'a vast body of earth' still to be seen near Beckampton on a natural shelf that accentuates its height.....

There is some confusion as the Longstones Longbarrow is not the closest longbarrow to the actual Longstones in longstones field.
That would be South Street Longbarrow which is now destroyed and only preserved as a triangle of unploughed ground in the same field.
I always call the Longbarrow by the roundabout,
'Beckhampton Longstones Longbarrow'
