Standing stones, Winterbourne Monkton
Hidden away by trees, the stones are much smaller than their world-famous counterparts to be found at Avebury a few kilometres to the south. How they came to be here remains a mystery to me at least.

The house with no name?
This thatched cottage in Winterbourne Monkton is listed grade II (list entry 1182998) but it is intriguingly titled 'No name for this Entry'. The largest scale on MagicMap doesn't even give a number or name for it either. Note the detail of a highwayman on the end of the thatched ridge, a change from the more usual animal figure. With that clue, I did find a reference to 'Highwaymans Cottage, 211 Winterbourne Monkton'.
