Thanks Forrester. Unfortunatey, FP insists that just about everything is part of a ritual landscape except for his Flag Fen drove roads.

I just wonder if we simplistically categorise all roundish bank and ditch structures as being the same. We call them henges and sort of assume that they all were designed for the same purpose. Perhaps some were religious and others were practical. It might just be that it was standard practise to start any construction by digging a ditch around it and throwing the excavated earth up to form a surrounding bank.
