Scientific paper

There have been many mathematical or astronomical explanations of the construction of certain elements at Stonehenge1-9. In 1979 a small salvage excavation at the site resulted in the chance discovery of a prehistoric pit dug to take a standing stone. The recognition that such substantial structures can exist unknown at Stonehenge is important to those who seek alignments or patterns in the locations of neolithic features. That `known' arrangements could be affected by such unexpected discoveries is here illustrated with a preliminary reassessment of the significance of the Heelstone and the Station Stones (a full description of all aspects of Stonehenge is given in ref. 10).
