Well, we’re not yet sure if Weedon Hill (the name used by Stukeley) is natural or manmade. When I trespassed there (tsk :-) a few years ago it looked manmade, but until we know for sure everything’s conjecture isn’t it. Having said that, its position, so close to the Kennet and Swallowhead, suggests that (if it is manmade) it might predate both Silbury and the Marlborough Mound.
Excavating it might solve quite a few mysteries but then we’re faced with the dilemma of desecrating it - as was done at Silbury. Jeeze... we’re going round in circles on this one – to dig or not to dig, that is the question.
