This lovely formation is barely visible from the
A4. It is in a field of wheat, and comprises a centre 16m circle,
with a surrounding ring at 32m which has 4 circles along it, each
being 8m across. The lay is neat with most of the crop bent over at
the base of the stem. The formation measures 40m across.

We visited one
of the formations near the gallops (A4/A361) which was a
100-110 diameter ring with a laid circle in the centre and
four very narrow spiralling arms leading from the edge of the
centre circle out to the outer ring. From the air, I imagine it
would be a much smaller four fold geometry similar to the one below Hackpen
Hill earlier this year, but with the centre and outer edge laid
down.
