The model room is full of timber circles at the moment. We have a reconstruction of Stanton Drew, another of the 'cricket stumps' in Stonehenge car park, one of Woodhenge, another of the South Circle at Durrington Walls, and, finally, the Sanctuary at Avebury.

As usual, you aren't confined to two dimensional representations - if you want to wander around the reconstructions yourself, please feel free to download the .kmz file from the relevant page, which will open in google earth and, all going well, land you where you want to be.

Reconstruction of a little known monument at Mount Pleasant, Dorset. The monument lies within one of the Wessex super henges.

If you would like a closer look, there is a choice of viewing a video of the reconsruction, or you can download the model file and play with it in Google Earth.

This is a representation of the wood and stone phase of the Sanctuary. And we know it looks odd.

The thing is, there have been a few different interpretations of this structure, and archaeologists disagree with the number of phases this monument went through, and how much time passed between phases. Have a look around and see what you think. Click here or on image to go to the reconstruction page for this monument.

This one is altogether simpler - a nice double stone circle with an avenue.

This was more or less as it was for the best part of around 3500 years, until some sarsen-hungry 18th century farmers thought it might look better as a house.

Identified by Alexander Keiller and OGS Crawford from the air in 1925, Woodhenge was excavated by Maude Cunnington in the 1920's.

This impressive monument then faded from public attention until the 1967 excavations ahead of improvements to the A345 uncovered another pair of timber circles within the confines of nearby Durrington Walls. Click here or on image to go to the info page.

Famously reconstructed for a Time Team special about Durrington Walls, this timber circle was discovered in 1967 during excavations ahead of the A345 improvements.

These were conducted by Geoffrey Wainright, who did a heroic job in the time given (and pioneered the use of bulldozers in archaeology).

Some geophysics performed in 1997 revealed an astonishing array of previously unsuspected post holes radiating out from the centre of this unsung stone circle complex. This is a reconstruction of how it might have looked originally.

Archaeologists discovered three post holes ahead of work on the car park at Stonehenge. The timbers they held are thought to have been rather massive - this reconstruction is based on the measurements approximated from the depths and widths of the pits. The human figures are approx. 5'10".
