A Doorway to Where?
Gurston Ashes, nr Fovant & Chiselbury Ring, Wiltshire.
This circle was first seen on July 24th 2018, and is located at a place called Gurston Ashes (a ring of ancient trees), nr Fovant in Wiltshire. The circle is approximately 200ft in diameter and is in a field of mature wheat. As we flew over, many of the nearby fields were in the process of being harvested, one wonders how much longer the season will continue and if we will have an early finish in 2018.
Location: This is a very pretty location, Gurston Ashes, is a ring of ancient trees, not far from Fovant in Wiltshire. Fovant is famous for its chalk Military Badges carved into the hillside, you can see pictures of the Badges in the gallery on our website, and read more about both of them and their
history
Many have interpreted this design as a door ajar – which seems eminently reasonable. According to the geometer and researcher Michael Glickman, the doorknob is located at the centre of the enclosing and outer circle (a nice touch), there are also a couple of
other interesting geometrical protocols going on – these will be explored by Karen in the Geometry Galley on our website – soon.
The idea of the crop circles as some kind of portal (or doorway) is not new and there have been several formations that have shown tunnels, portals
and other similar design motifs. This circle immediately reminded me of the book title ‘The Door Marked Summer” by Michael Bentine and the Steve Wilson song of the same name. If ever there was a door marked summer – this would be it!
The long wait for the publication of this title is nearly over. We thank everyone for their patience on this mattter. Unfortunately life has very much got in the way this year, and things have been difficult. Although late we hope the wait will be worth it. Publication now early August 2018.
THE CROP CIRCLE YEAR BOOK 2017, will be the nineteenth in a series of year books by Steve Alexander (photographer) and Karen Alexander (writer) portraying the beautiful and mysterious crop circle phenomenon within the UK. This popular series of full colour, fine-art-reproduction books are privately published in limited numbers and come to you directly from the
authors; they have become an invaluable and magical window into the fields of southern England, and are the only annually published books on the subject.
