Summary
DescriptionHampton Down stone circle - geograph.org.uk - 242207.jpg |
English: Hampton Down stone circle. This rather overgrown neolithic stone circle lies alongside the inland coast path on Hampton Down above Portesham. A sign on the stile next to the circle reads: "THIS STONE CIRCLE IS AN ANCIENT MONUMENT SCHEDULED BY THE MINISTRY OF PUBLIC BUILDING AND WORKS. IT WAS EXCAVATED IN 1965 AND THE STONES RE-INSTATED IN THEIR ORIGINAL SOCKETS. THE ORIGINAL CIRCLE WAS PROBABLY CONSTRUCTED BETWEEN 1800 AND 1200 B.C. STRUCTURES OF THIS TYPE ARE CONSIDERED TO HAVE HAD A RITUAL SIGNIFICANCE." A few years ago the site was cleared of brambles, but nature has reclaimed it once again. |
