Yarnbury (Camp) Castle hillfort, Wilts.
(nr Steeple Langford)
This circle was reported late on the 3rd of July and is in a field of green barley on the opposite side of the road to Yarnbury hillfort in Wiltshire. It measures approximately 180ft in diameter.
Visiting: At the time of writing we have no information about access to this circle. You will need the express permission of the farmer/landowner before visiting. Do not assume permission has been given – ask first!
Location: The circle is located close to the A303 as it passes Yarnbury Castle/hillfort. It is very close to the position of the circle last year that appeared on the 24th June 2018.
Yarnbury Castle is a huge Iron-Age circular hillfort (it covers over 28 acres) and is just a few miles west from Stonehenge. Unlike many other similar earthworks, Yarnbury Castle is on private land and cannot be visited by the public, so please do not wander onto the site. At the moment the hillfort is surrounded by a sea of scarlet poppies which look
absolutely spectacular!
This is such a difficult design to interpret. It will be interesting to look for any connections on the drawing board. Apart from the large circle, and small crescent moon, there appears to be a three-fold (triangular) aspect to some of the lines that protrude from the main circle.
