East Kennett garden feature submitted by JJ : A view of the East Kennet avenue and circle. These must be modern stones, does anyone have more information? (Vote or comment on this photo)
Modern arrangement of sarsens in a garden - there are very many natural sarsens nearby. The ancient stone circle at East Kennet has long been destroyed. Maybe some of those stones appear in this modern folly.
