It’s crazy to think that 24 years and 11 months to the day that the truly iconic ‘Galaxy’ was discovered on top of Milk Hill, the circles returned to the one of the most inaccessible fields on the very edge of the Marlborough Downs. Whilst this three-fold design is way smaller and possesses no real similarity to its more illustrious ancestor, it makes you think of how things used to be.
