I thought I'd found a remarkable prehistoric alignment. Then LiDAR changed my mind.
Nine Ladies, Andle Stone and Doll Tor lie on an almost exact 240° line across Stanton Moor.
But what if the most important feature isn't a monument at all?
I built a LiDAR Lens to investigate. What emerged changed the hypothesis.

Great excitement chez moi. h/t @Timdaw, LIDAR.
Walking to Weybourne, our WW2 tank ditch has to sit in the imagination - it was largely filled in by 1952. But lo! The invsibilitymagickthing reveals works and wotnots everywhere. Thank me later.

✨ NEW VIDEO - OUT NOW! 💫
Discussing upcoming survey work from the Thornborough Archaeology Group! And plugging their fundraiser.
They've already been bumped almost £2000 since the video landed... which is wild.

For the #Stonehenge area, there is new imagery on Google Earth from August this year showing lots of #archaeology. Pits for missing stones at #Stonehenge plus the barrows just to the SE. Read this thread for more examples ... 1/8

Tim, thank you for bringing this important paper to everyone’s attention, and for such a careful account of what it does and does not show.
It is especially useful to my own landscape-first way of looking at monuments. The strongest point is not simply that the Devil’s Arrows were moved 18 km, but that particular elongated stones were selected from the extraordinary gritstone landscape of Brimham and brought into a lowland ceremonial landscape around the Ure and Swale.
That brings material character, human movement, source-place and monument together without needing to force a single explanation. Your insistence on the limits of the evidence makes the argument stronger. A very useful piece of work.

I had to go back make another one, I wanted to cut the lines with out such big over cuts being such tricky stuff to carve with 65 year old eyes. Its hard to imagine someone sat sat on the Wiltshire plains 4 thousand years ago and carved bone with flint tools to such perfection

I saw the best archaeology I've ever been lucky enough to witness yesterday... 😵
Newton Kyme Henge - whose ditches are almost completely lost. Almost 300m edge-to-edge. Showing up in this heatwave as a perfect ghost from 5000 years ago. Absolute magic.
