  • A Pilgrimage to Avebury Stone Circles in Wiltshire
    BEST OF BRITAIN A pilgrimage to Avebury stone circles in Wiltshire ere are famous religious pilgrimages, there are also the pilgrimages that one does for oneself. It doesn't have to be on foot or by any particular mode of transport. It is nothing more than the journey of getting to the desired destination, in any way or form. For me, that desired destination was the stone circles of Avebury in Wiltshire, for years I’ve been yearning to sit in stone circles and visit the sacred sites of Europe. So, why visit Avebury, a place that is often sold to us as the poor cousin of the ever-famous Stonehenge? In real - ity, it is not less but much more. Why Avebury? is sacred Neolithic site is the largest set of stone circles out of the thousands in the United Kingdom and in the world. It is older than other sites, although the dating is sketchy. I've heard everything from 2600BC to 4500BC and it’s still up for discussion. Despite being a World Heritage site, Avebury is fully open to the public. Unlike Stonehenge, you can walk in and around the stones. It is accessible by public transport, buses stop in the middle of the village, and the entrance is free. As well as the stone cir - cles, there is also an avenue of stones that take you down to the West Kennet Long Barrow and Silbury Hill. Onsite for a small fee you can visit the museum and manor that are run by the National Trust.

  • The Origins of Avebury 2 1,* 2 2 Q13 Q2mark Gillings , Joshua Pollard & Kris Strutt 4 5 6 the Avebury Henge Is One of the Famous Mega
    1 The origins of Avebury 2 1,* 2 2 Q13 Q2Mark Gillings , Joshua Pollard & Kris Strutt 4 5 6 The Avebury henge is one of the famous mega- 7 lithic monuments of the European Neolithic, Research 8 yet much remains unknown about the detail 9 and chronology of its construction. Here, the 10 results of a new geophysical survey and 11 re-examination of earlier excavation records 12 illuminate the earliest beginnings of the 13 monument. The authors suggest that Ave- ’ 14 bury s Southern Inner Circle was constructed 15 to memorialise and monumentalise the site ‘ ’ 16 of a much earlier foundational house. The fi 17 signi cance here resides in the way that traces 18 of dwelling may take on special social and his- 19 torical value, leading to their marking and 20 commemoration through major acts of monu- 21 ment building. 22 23 Keywords: Britain, Avebury, Neolithic, megalithic, memory 24 25 26 Introduction 27 28 Alongside Stonehenge, the passage graves of the Boyne Valley and the Carnac alignments, the 29 Avebury henge is one of the pre-eminent megalithic monuments of the European Neolithic. ’ 30 Its 420m-diameter earthwork encloses the world s largest stone circle. This in turn encloses — — 31 two smaller yet still vast megalithic circles each approximately 100m in diameter and 32 complex internal stone settings (Figure 1). Avenues of paired standing stones lead from 33 two of its four entrances, together extending for approximately 3.5km and linking with 34 other monumental constructions. Avebury sits within the centre of a landscape rich in 35 later Neolithic monuments, including Silbury Hill and the West Kennet palisade enclosures 36 (Smith 1965; Pollard & Reynolds 2002; Gillings & Pollard 2004).

Bristol BS32 4UD A X . s . 2 6 -5 - 9 A / - . REVISION PURPOSE PREPARED CHECKED REVIEWED BY BY BY ENVIRONMENT AGENCY EXECUTIVE SUMMARY This document is Volume One of a two volume Final Report on the Kennet and Coin River Levels Study and considers the Upper Kennet catchment above Knighton gauging station. The Study was commissioned largely as a result of public concern that the character of the river had changed over the last 30 years. The fundamental concern was with reduced river levels and the general view was that reductions were caused, in great part, by groundwater abstraction for public supply outside the Kennet catchment. The Study was divided into two stages and an Interim Report on the Stage One Study was issued in December 1991. This Report updates the findings of the Stage One Study and presents the findings for both Stage One and Stage Two. Stage One of the Study considered how the four main measures of the character of the catchment viz: ° Groundwater levels ° Surface flow, water level and the upper limit of flow ° Water quality ° Flora and fauna have changed with time.

The only known heritage assets on or in the immediate vicinity of the site are the listed Manor Farm house and structures within its curtilage pre-dating 1948. The development is unlikely to affect adversely the settings of several other nearby listed buildings. Given the intensity of prehistoric and Saxon activity in the wider area there is a possibility that archaeological remains of some period might be present which may have survived the construction of the modern farm.

Avebury South West Quadrant Key Geography: World Heritage Site containing a prehistoric chalk mound, Neolithic stone barrow, Neolithic henge and stone circle. Sarsen sandstone. Description: Silbury Hill is part of the sacred landscape of Neolithic and Bronze Age ceremonial sites centred on Avebury. It is the world’s largest prehistoric chalk-built mound, constructed between 2450 and 2350 BC. Although it is only 31 metres high, the whole of nearby Stonehenge would fit on the flattened top with plenty of room to spare. A huge ditch surrounds the feature, and digging it provided the soil and chalk to build the mound. Although it is not possible to climb Silbury, it is easily accessible from a nearby car park and viewpoint. However, the best way to approach this unusual historic feature is a two mile stroll along a footpath from Avebury village.
