Just a thought which no doubt has been mentioned many times before, but if a circle has a recumbent stone in it, is it more likely to 'suggest' that it was 'used' for something different to your bog standard circle without a recumbent, even if in the same area?


Possibly, but as T mentioned, other circles share the same evidence of use.
Fernworthy is graded and has evidence of fires.
What about the recumbent at the Sanctuary? Theres a poser for you!
A NW 'entrance' but with a recumbent at the SW, whereas, as touched upon earlier, Burl considered the recumbent at NE scottish sites to perhaps have been a blocked entrance.
