Map sheet SD is also the likely location for the following sites which have been destroyed:

- Cleatop Park Stone Circle at approximate map reference SD821613

Apparently, the circle was destroyed by the farmer of the land in the 1870s. I recently visited the site, but there is little to see apart from a few shapeless hollows.

- Rawthey Bridge Stone Circle at approximate map reference SD710970

These lost megalithic sites do not appear on the map above, as their locations are uncertain. Any information about these sites, particularly if you know they exist, would be very much appreciated. Mail Andy with any information.


The name and map reference of the sites appear in the status bar when the mouse pointer is placed over a point on the map above.

Browse the circles and rows alphabetically.

Jump to the Prehistoric Web index, which covers more types of site (text only).

How OS Map references work:

In each map reference, the letters SD refer to the 100 km2 sheet shown above. The next three numbers are the distance across from the left edge (0 to 999) and the final three numbers are the distance up from the bottom edge, (0 to 999).

All megalithic sites indicated on the above map have further details given on a separate page here at the Megalith Map. Sites marked on the map in red, or in the text listing with www have web links to pictures or information on other web sites. Sites in green just have a basic text listing. Triangles represent group sites with two or more megalithic sites close together.


Tell us about a stone circle or row not included on the above map, or any new web links by e-mailing Andy, and helping us to make this resource better for all who use it.
