I found this pic of saddle stones and support lintels for a hayrick at nearby Chatsworth (near the kids play area and pet zoo) so say 3 miles away?

Bang goes the hayrick theory as the stone shapes are nothing alike and they aren't going to change in design over such a short distance from each other

Suppose another use was found for the top parts of each support, the mushroom head. Wikipedia tells me they were often made in two parts. Then the structure near chatsworth could be deconstructed, have heads taken and look a lot like the Gardom's edge one...
