Cursus mapS

Map of likely key lines of the cursus survey across southern Britain, as evidenced by the lines of cursuses   

Key to line numbers

(1)  Greater Stonehenge cursus line;   

(2) Lesser Stonehenge cursus line; 

(3) Stanwell cursus line which is at 90 degrees to line 2;  

(4) Nether Exe cursus line which makes 60 degrees with line 3;  

(5) Aston cursus line 

(6) Old Sarum - Hoy at 90 degrees to line 1; 

(7) Old Sarum - Dumfries at 90 degrees to line 2;

The same map but with additional likely key survey lines as suggested by cursus concentrations and the landscape. 

Note how the Aston Cursus (line 5) is exactly parallel to the Dunkery Beacon-Rudston line. A further parallel line through Maxey aligns on Marden mega-henge.
