Worcs henge discovered

Anyone seen this yet? I am very excited as it's within cycling distance, and my genetic ancestors inhabit the Bredon area. All this bias makes me want to post it on TMA but the server won't let me :-(

I just read of it in today's Worcester Journal, it says:

"It is the first henge... to be investigated in Worcestershire...other finds at the site include more burial pits, stone tools and pottery, which are believed to date the site somewhere between 2,700BC - 2,000 BC - the tail end of the Neolithic period.

...The archaeology department has plans to display the finds at UCW. (University College Worcester)
