Greetings The Captain and everyone,
Four stone rings, the outermost fourth ring could tally 33 stones, the symbolic number and value inferring sacred, the Otherworld, the Ultimate. Can anyone plot the stones please? Remember the designers stone dust design marker ring was most probably just outside the actual stone positions, tangential, a touching circle. That way the original intention was not destroyed by the construction works digging holes to take the stones. The inner ring is quoted as six metres diameter. Convert this to ancient faethms, 2.073 metres, the circumference of an outer touching circle would be close to nine faethms. That value is the folktale number signifying humanity, three families of father mother and first child.
The increases in diameter are stated about five metres diameter each ring. I make that 21m diameter for ring 4. Hence the outermost touching stone dust circle design was 33 faethms, the head to toe height of the Long man of Wilminton, the Dodman surveyor of Stonehenge times. Neil.
