It may 'vaguely resemble' a horse, but it's a bloody close resemblence to the Uffington horse. The Uffington horse only 'vaguely resembles' a horse.

As you say. It needs looking at properly to be sure.

Exactly! I would love it to be verified if only as a partial vindication of dear old Tom Lethbridge who was pilloried by the estalishment for daring to suggest that chalk cut hill figures could exist in Cambridgeshire.


In the meantime, I make no assumptions. Elswhere I have argued vigorously against people who see faces carved into standing stones etc - I know about Rorschach ink blots. At Whittlesford, it look more like a road to me, but the hind legs and tail do look a lot like Uffington.. Could even be a modern (Victorian) folly!
