hilarious. Thanks for pointing that out.
I wasn't trying to be funny, or sarcastic, I just wanted to know what the correct position was. If you compare the two, they are definitely different.

Looking at the Guardian reconstruction with the possible barrow in the centre, and timber posts round the edge, it struck me as similar to the barrow/timber circle in the Ogden Down barrow cemetery - illustrated in "A Landscape Revealed", but it is not similar a) because the 'new henge' has two entrances, and b) the Ogden barrow only has a ditch plus wattle hurdling to enclose it, and there again Mike Pitts says they might be pit holes and not timber holes, so its all confusing as usual....
