Mount Pleasant henge
Mount Pleasant henge is a Neolithic henge enclosure in the English county of Dorset. Rather like other 'superhenge' sites such as Durrington Walls much of the earthworks have been ploughed or weathered away and it was not rediscovered until Stuart Piggott and his wife Peggy Guido visited the area in 1936. On finding the site they diagnosed it as a henge as its bank was outside its ditch and a later Bronze Age barrow had been placed on top of the bank.

Flagstones
