the problem is the sarsen used to make up bridge the isn't even enough for a large single stone.
The bridge support on the land side was only 2-3ft high and they ran out of sarsen to make a complete central support as it is packed out with flint nodules.
There was no stone on the riverside.
If there were four stones you would expect to see a lot more in the area.
I searched the riverbank in winter and couldn't find anymore.

I really enjoyed the Documetary as it helped me to see the bigger picture, Stonehenge related to the Avenue (natural feature?) leading to the River which led to Durrington Walls.

But I was surprised that Woodhenge was not mentioned once, I would have thought there was some connection with that site.

And still very little was found out about the Cursus.
