And it's all predicated on Silababy being man made, the grid ref for Silababy ibeing accurate and was it intentional . Miles out was'nt I.... so coming nearer home and a sightline from Silbury/Silbaby/Sanctuary/Bitham barrow, and if you look at the map, Lockeridge Dene (which has a stream of natural sarsen stones coming down from Fyfield Down) is also near the Bitham barrow, there's another tumulus mentioned there as well by the way, you may have a significant feature in the landscape being highlighted.... I looked at Devereux's sightlining from Silbury Hill to the surrounding landscape - not sure I was convinced.... Still there seems to be a public footpath from West Overton past the barrow it would be interesting looking back and taking photos. http://www.themodernantiquaria[...]28/images/lockeridge_dene.html Reply | with quote |  6th January 2008ce 18:27 In reply to: Re: Silbaby .
