Chipping Sodbury Stone Circle
Date Added: 29th Oct 2019
Site Type: Modern Stone Circle etc
Country: England (Gloucestershire)
Visited: Yes on 1st Jan 2016
Chipping Sodbury Stone Circle submitted by TheCaptain on 1st Jan 2016. New Years Day 2016 has been a foul miserable dark and wet day, so in a small effort to get myself out of the house, thought I'd go and get a couple of pictures of this fairly new stone circle. I dont know when this was constructed, I only noticed it for the first time sometime last year; it seems fairly new and I assume the stones are from the local quarry.
