The circle itself is compos’d of stones of various shapes and dimensions, set pretty near together, as may best be seen by the drawings, TABLE III, IV. They are flattish, about 16 inches thick. Originally there seems to have been 60 in number, at present there are 22 standing, few exceeding 4 foot in height; but one in the very north point much higher than the rest, 7 foot high, 5½ broad. There was an entrance to it from the north-east, as is the case at _Stonehenge_. _Ralph Sheldon_, esquire, dug in the middle of the circle at _Rowldrich_, but found nothing. 6. Another argument of its being a Druid temple, is taken from the barrows all around it, according to the constant practice in these places. To the north-east is a great _tumulus_ or barrow of a long form, which I suppose to have been of an arch-druid. Between it and our temple is a huge stone standing upright, called the _kingstone_; the stone is 8 foot high, 7 broad, which, together with the barrow, may be seen in TABLES III, V. but the barrow has had much dug away from it. ’Tis now above 60 foot in length, 20 in breadth, flattish at top. I know not whether there were more stones standing originally about this barrow, or that this belong’d to some part of the administration of religious offices in the temple, as a single stone. In the same plate may be seen another barrow, but circular, below the road to the left hand, on the side of the hill. Under it is a spring-head running eastward to _Long Compton_. This barrow has had stone-work at the east end of it. Upon this same heath eastward, in the way to _Banbury_, are many barrows of different shapes, within sight of _Rowldrich_; particularly, near a place call’d _Chapel_ on the heath, is a large, flat, and circular _tumulus_, ditch’d about, with a small tump in the center: this is what I call a Druid’s barrow; many such near _Stonehenge_, some whereof I opened; a small circular barrow a little way off it. There are on this heath too, many circular dish-like cavities, as near _Stonehenge_, we may call them barrows inverted. Not far from the Druid’s barrow I saw a square work, such as I call Druids’ courts or houses. Such near _Stonehenge_ and _Abury_. ’Tis a place 100 cubits square, double-ditch’d. The earth of the ditches is thrown inward between the ditches, so as to a raise a terrace, going quite round. The ditches are too inconsiderable to be made for defence. Within are seemingly remains of stone walls. ’Tis within sight of the temple, and has a fine prospect all around, being seated on the highest part of the ridge. A little further is a small round barrow, with stone-work at the east end, like that before spoken of near _Rowldrich_; a dry stone wall or fence running quite over it, across the heath.
