Nearby the village of Lockeridge, to the south of the A4 just to the west of Marlborough, can be found a couple of bits of land set aside and in the care of the National Trust, where there are lots of natural sarsen stones laying about the place.

They look for all the world like they are still waiting for some ancient chap to come along and build a circle out of them.
