'Stone Henge' planned for Crick
The things people will do to make Daventry interesting.....
DAVENTRY District Council has agreed unusual plans to build a 'stone henge' at the top of a famous landmark near Crick.
The council last week debated plans to install four 10-tonne rocks at compass points around Cracks Hill to create a unique stone circle about 30 metres from the top of the hill.

Stone age discovery in roadworks
From:

Archaeologists face a race against time after the discovery of what are believed to be the remains of a stone age settlement on the A30 in Cornwall.
The Highways Agency allowed the archaeologists access to the site ahead of the dualling next to Goss Moor.
Heavy machinery has already began stripping part of the route, leaving little time for the dig.
They are trying to record all signs of human activity and so far have come across a lot of evidence of mining.
Meanwhile, circular stone structures have been uncovered at Belowda, near Roche.
These ruins include old stream workings, some leats and culverts which may be tied in to more intensive tin workings, and the settlement.

Dartmoor is my home turf, but Wiltshire makes me calm and still.
I don't believe that we need to know everything about the past in order to connect with it.
