REPORT

The circle measures approximately 200 feet in diameter. On the ground a significant proportion of the laid barley crop was noted as heavily crushed in critical construction points. Other areas of downed crop was lightly laid and crunchy under-foot.

Ground Shots Charles R Mallett (C) 2009


 

Myself and Paul Jones discovered this formation at approx. 9am. It was fresh so to speak and had no visible entry by any visitors. As we stepped into the formation the first initial sign was the crispiness of the plant - a good indication that there was no other visitors walking on the barley. This formation is just visible from Windmill Hill Formation which is now barely visible as the barley has risen and once again growing. This formation is also visible from the main A4 road as its positioned on the incline of the hill. The whole formation appears to have been created clockwise with some interesting features - the smaller circles of the design have two tufts standing side by side and give the impression as if a florist spent time in presentation. ( Rather Quaint ). So - The two dots visible in all four smaller circles in the aerial shot are the standing tufts of barley. The centre circle once again gave of tremendous energy which other visitors have noticed as well. The energy also flowed through the channels of the formation - but at certain points only ( rather interesting ). The centre circle and the swirl within it is positioned of centre - the three quarter large outer circles have tufts of barley standing which are positioned in the inner part of the circle. The channels or ( Lines ) of the formation displayed ` force ` as the flattened barley is pushed high against the standing barley. Also the outline of the formation was created first as other weaves in the formation overlap this outer line of the formation.

The first thing noticeable when entering this formation in the late afternoon of June 1st, was the popping crunch under-foot of fresh, flowing and neatly laid crop. In some places the crop had started to spring back up but was mostly horizontal and flowing. Bent nodes could be found and centre spirals were showpieces. I found energy in the centre of the formation to be quite subtle, but present.
