My James Dyer says (Southern Arch.Guide) 1973 that Addington has cultural affinities with western Europe rather than western Britain, being particularly like the langdysse or long dolmens of Scandinavia. But he goes on to say that the Chestnuts barrow shows that it had been used for a long time and had neolithic pottery some from Windmill Hill, this being found in front of the facade, indicating that these were gifts left by the mourners... Both Coldrum and Chestnuts are orientated east/west, Addington -north-east/south west. They appeared though because of the drift of sarsens in the area - therefore were they different people imitating the cotswold barrows of the south west?

I have my doubts about them even being built by the same clan of people to be honest. Chestnuts resembles Lower Kits Coty so much, and Stukeley thought they were both D-shaped barrows, possibly without even an earth covering.

So then they become open to the sky, but enclosed in stone...remind you of anything?
