Woodhenge (Wiltshire) submitted by sem on 7th Sep 2015. Woodhenge -The Model
One picture taken of a 3D model conceived during a wet weekend. Projects like this can reveal previously unseen features.
I would point out that the henge itself is now thought to have been built after the timbers decayed.

Log Text: Access and information has improved since my last visit. A new road (Marina Lane) branches off Roecliffe Road on the way into Boroughbridge and this now features a small parking area with an information board about the stones which seems to be aimed at visitors to the Devils Arrows.
One of the Arrows sits adjacent to the main road in a small clearing while the two others stand in the field opposite it. All of them can be seen from the new parking spaces and can be walked to. Although the main road into Boroughbridge passes by one stone and the two others are close to the A168 road this does not detract as much as you think it would as the stones are big enough to have an imposing presence of their own. Access to one Arrow is extremely easy as it is next to the road, while access to the others would probably depend more on the state of the crops in the field.
This is an excellent site to visit as a break if you are on a car journey up or down the A1(M) and the new layby and information board is a positive development. In spite of this I am sure that many people drive straight past and don't realise that the stones are there

Log Text: Visited this impressive site on a fine spring evening. The lengthening shadows helped to show the height of the banks and how the henge fits into the surrounding landscape. Although located very close to the city of Belfast, the urban landscape feels a world away here.

Easter Aquhorthies submitted by Umbra-man on 20th Mar 2020. 20 Mar 20. This years Spring EQ sunrise. Horizon slightly obscured by cloud, while the rest of the sky was.... 99% clear ! Sub zero by a few degrees made for chilly camera fingers, but even for the ancients this must have been a special place and time of the year. In the Neolithic calendar this is the start of spring. For folk that came later (Celts/Picts/Pagans) this is the season of Imbolc.
