Hey TH, I notice you've just posted pix from Summerhouse Hill - what is your take on it?

I'm still out on the stone circle theory although I do wonder whether glacial erratics have been utilised to excellent effect......

Hi Vicster

I think glacial eratics too, but i do believe it was once a circle.
If you follow the circumference theres definate socket holes and all the remaining stones do seem to be propped up, plus theres that bank that seems to follow the circle.
I think most of the circle was destroyed to make the summerhouse plus theres a lime kiln in the corner of the field.

Peace
