David Byrne reckoned ‘We’re on a road to nowhere?’ Don’t think so, do you?

As Greywether notes... the reservoir road cuts straight through this deceptively upstanding henge. Couldn’t appreciate it for what it is at first, working my way back from the water works having driven on without realising. Here we look east across the interior of the site.

No detailed directions should be necessary for this site as a look at the map will confirm.

A Class II henge measuring 61m x 55m. Both entrances can still be seen and the bank/ditch are best preserved on the E.
