Some rings on the old farm
This site used to be Hengrove Farm (now lost post-war, with the farmhouse now covered by the houses in the background). Its location was primarily concerned with a quarry, which is now a pleasant open green space. However, these ring features are a very recent addition which do not appear to have any historical relevance.

A small matter of a limestone block
