Rowbarrow Salisbury
Rowbarrow Salisbury submitted by shunt : Circular shape in Salisbury (Vote or comment on this photo)
Misc. Earthwork in Wiltshire

A field system, visible by aerial views, such as Google Earth. Several circular shapes still are clearly visible, the growth is much darker and shorter than the surrounding. In 1994, traces were found in evaluation trenches, also 20 pieces of worked flint probably of later Neolithic or Early Bronze Age date.

There's not much information available about the official name, but the street next to the field is called Rowbarrow, so I took that name for now.

More information of the area can be found here and here.
