CC 29

Windmill Hill, nr Avebury Trusloe, Wiltshire. Reported 27th July.


It is about 300' across six fold geometry with about 71 total circles. Basically a seed of life with two "rings of pearls" I've attached a sketch based on my walk through, but haven't seen the aerial photo yet. The centre had 3 larger sculptures and three nests. The larger sculptures had braided rings, standing tufts, and 5, 7, or 9 tightly woven knots in the centres. The inner "ring of pearls" was made up of 6 major and 18 minor circles, each half standing, half laid. the outer "ring of pearls" was made up of 6 major circles at the points of each "petal" and five circle in between each one. The centres of each of these circles was unique in its lay and nest. There was one circle on the outer ring that was half laid half standing like the

inner 18 circles. There was also one "signature" circle on the outer edge of one of the 6 major outer circles. This signature circle was a two foot ring, with a standing centre of 2 foot radius with a line of laid wheat penetrating the standing portion. I imagine it would look a bit like the "copyright" trademark in western printing style.
