30 May: Fox Ground Down, Dorset
30 May: Fox Ground Down, Blandford Forum, Dorest
9 June: Sherston, Wilts
A beautiful spiral in a usually circle shy part of Wiltshire.
22 June: Uffcott, Wilts
One of the season’s best, this gorgeous rose appeared in the shadow of Hackpen Hill.
6 July: Clearbury Ring, Wilts
These crescents, rings and ‘swords’ appeared close to the ancient hillfort.
9 July: Devil’s Den, Wiltshire
The famously secluded dolmen acquired a silently respectful visitor.
15 July: Rollright Stones, Oxon
A pentagram and two crescents. The smaller circle mirrored the Whispering Knights stone circle.
19 July: Haselor, Warks
A wonderfully minimalistic eight pointed star.
21 July: Fairford, Glos
Odd but beautifully constructed.
26 July: Maiden Castle, Dorset
A promise of a code underneath an Iron Age hill fort.
8 August: Hampton Lucy, Warks
A tilting dove that lay undiscovered but for the vigilance of a pilot flying overhead.
8 August: Bowerchalke, Wilts
A sun wheel that divided opinion; beautifully formed, nonetheless.
9 August, Fox Hill, Wilts
49 standing tufts and a weave made the mandorla of a simple vesica piscis.
