(2011-04-24)		 Philarch, any megarak would look at that photo and think 'recumbent'. It's also about the most well-known one. Have a look at the main site-page, the signboard image by Krautrock illustrates it very well. http://www.megalithic.co.uk/modules.php?op=modload&name=a312&file=index&do=showpic&pid=61594
Also, for a description of recumbent circles, http://www.aberdeenshire.gov.uk/archaeology/special/recumbent.asp
