It comprises a spiralling earthwork which takes visitors down through the layers of archaeology and up again into the light. In future the 13 Pedunculate Oaks and 2 Wild Service trees that surround it should create a shady space. An outer ring of natural indigenous bushes were specially chosen to provide food for birds. 6m x 63 m diameter.
