Churchill
Date Added: 12th Jan 2011
Site Type: Stone Circle
Country: England (Oxfordshire)
Visited: Yes on 11th Jun 2005
Churchill submitted by hamish on 11th Jun 2005. The Stone Circle in Sarsgrove woods was last reported in 1929 but has not been seen since. It would seem the stones have been removed over the years and are scattered over the village. These stones by the Church are probably from the circle. More info on Celia's pages.

The land belongs to Gatcombe Park but there seems to be a footpath.
