Condicote henge
Condicote henge submitted by TimPrevett : Condicote Henge 18/05/10 as seen from the eastern side looking across the SE section; lines give approximate mark of the surviving visible earthwork - much more noticeable when there in person than on the photograph. (Vote or comment on this photo)
Henge in the village of Condicote, Gloucestershire, two concentric ditches with a bank between them. It survives partly as earthworks and partly as cropmarks. The internal diameter of the bank is approx 112 metres, thus enclosing around 0.9 hectares.

The presence and location of entrances is uncertain, with parts of the bank, ditches and interior obscured by buildings and a minor road.

Note: It's that time of year to get out and find those obscure sites in your area. Can you help turn our map from green to red?

Re: Condicote henge by Anonymous on Saturday, 27 June 2009
Visited on the evening of 27th June 2009 - lovely village, virtually nothing to see of the henge other than a different vegetation type on (what we assumed) to be the inside of the ditch on the SE side of the road (the other side of the henge was in private gardens). Would be nice if English Heritage could provide a sign or two...
