Flagstones, Archaeological site near Dorchester, United Kingdom
The Flagstones archaeological site contains ancient stone structures positioned across a vast field in the Dorset countryside near Dorchester.
Archaeological excavations at Flagstones during the 1980s revealed evidence of Neolithic settlements and burial practices dating back to 3000 BCE.
The site presents multiple circular formations that indicate religious or ceremonial activities of early British inhabitants during the Stone Age period.
Visitors can access the site through marked pathways from the nearby parking area, with informational panels explaining the historical findings throughout the grounds.
The ground patterns at Flagstones display an unusual combination of concentric circles and rectangular structures that differ from other Neolithic sites in Britain.
