A large henge enclosure, partially extant as an earthwork, located on the southeast side of Dorchester. The site comprises a ditch and outer bank defining an irregular sub-oval area, the enclosure circuit being interrupted by four entrances. The maximum external diameter of the site is around 370 metres. The principal features noted in the interior were a substantial circular post-hole structure comprising five concentric circles of post holes within a ditch circa 43 metres in diameter. In a second phase, the timber structures appear to have been replaced by central cove-like setting of standing stones.) Wikipedia, Nov. 11, 2015 (Mount Pleasant henge.
