Log Text: These Cross Dykes are quite interesting - particularly figuring out why they were positioned where they are now found - where does this one protect - probably from attack from up the small combe to the West but where in the East?

Log Text: The site has been ravaged by the plough over many years - it is in a magnificent position - Oliver's Castle; the Wansdyke; Civil War Battle Field (Roundway Down 1643); loads of other barrows Long, Round, Bowl (single and in groups); Cross Dykes - lots to investigate in the area - superb views over the North Wessex Downs

Leigh Down submitted by h_fenton on 29th Apr 2012. Panoramic view of part of Leigh Down stone circle, the stone placements here are modern although their positions have been identified through dowsing.
