The Impact of the Ancient and the New. 

Well done to Olivier Morel (WCCSG) for shooting these wonderful shots of this enigmatic formation which were taken in difficult conditions. 

The formations positioned next to Stony Littleton Long Barrow add significance to the whole event. With the timeline clearly seen at this location spanning from ancient times to the impact of this present and unexpected set of circles. Unexpected also because this is the first time a formation has appeared at this location.  

This adds a depth and complexity to this whole intriguing event. 

Well done again Olivier for undertaking such a long flight and bringing us these great aerial shots.

I took a chance today, no rain but no sun either… crop circles are really a challenge to photograph ! so nothing really good today but at least these few pictures will show the exact shape. There is no tramlines really but I think we are talking about a formation of 200/250 feet long. It’s on a hill and it is slightly curved.

Location: Stony Littleton Long Barrow, Nr Wellow. Somerset
Map: Google Map Satellite
Crop:

The Crop is broad beans with oil seed rape growing through from last year. Beautiful to visit.  Sally Mitchell
Description: Rings and Circles  Beans????
Discovery: Monday 7th June 2010
Name: No name inputted into form
Status: Stuart Dike has visited the location,  and stated it seems to have been there for quite while with the crop turning green. Very hard to photograph on the ground but might look OK from the air. More info here. 

With great respect Mark. Stuart is still at the site filming it. He seems to think it is looking more interesting than he originally thought. Also he tells me the location with the Neolithic tomb and Long Barrow beside it is very atmospheric indeed. We can not wait to see the ground shots. He has to go back home before he can send them in to the Connector. (Time written nearly 3pm).

Latest update It looks like some sort of creature with a tail of diminishing circles. Stuart is finding this formation extremely interesting. He is still filming.

We talk about how amazing crop formations are throughout the season, well this location at Stony Littleton Long Barrow is quite stunning. The whole atmosphere on top of the hillside next to the ancient burial chamber has to be experienced. What is quite amazing also is this formation is in young beans of Flax? Its quite unusual, and I am at a loss to indentify it. I have never experienced a formation in this type of crop before, and thought at first glance it was old Canola. The crop is only three feet high, however it does have a yellow flower. Overall the floor construction is extremely neat, with some breakage. The plants are quite well flattened and will not recover. Design has a creature element. More to follow.
