Henge in North Yorkshire
Sinderby Henge was found by Lidar survey, but can be seen on Google Maps.
[Click on the third blue aeroplane square link above to see it.]
It was described by Yvonne Luke in 2017 Prehistoric Yorkshire, Yorkshire Archaeology and History Society. It is thought to be about the same size as the other Swale vale henges, diameter 240m plus with only a ploughed out height of 1m left. There are possibly more henges to be found as Lidar surveying is competed.
