One picture taken of a 3D model conceived during a wet weekend. Projects like this can reveal previously unseen features.
I would point out that the henge itself is now thought to have been built after the timbers decayed.

Marden Henge
Trip No.15 Entry No.5 Date Added: 6th May 2018
Site Type: Henge
Country: England (Wiltshire)
Visited: Yes on 29th Jun 2010. My rating: Access 5
Marden Henge submitted by Jansold on 24th Jul 2015. View of excavations during summer 2015.
Marden Henge is the biggest henge in England but because it did not have a stone circle associated with it, has tended to be overlooked. A huge mound, like a smaller version of Silbury Hill, named Hatfield Barrow, once existed within the henge, but it was levelled in the 19th C.
Foundations have been excavated within the henge that could have been a Neolithic sauna, containing a sunken hearth that would have given out intense heat.

Menhir des Demoiselles (Colombiers-sur-Seulles) submitted by thecaptain on 28th Apr 2005. Just over 2 metres in height, this menhir is set in its own little grassy area beside the road junction just uphill to the east of the village. It is a square pillar with several holes and indentations, and has been broken in the past at both top and bottom (probably during the war) and is now remounted on a concrete post. While I was here it was sunny between the clouds, there was a bike race going on past the stone, and an old warplane flying above, which all added to a nice French rural scen...

The farmer has left very little room around it, and it has some very recent scrapes and damage done to it, no doubt from farm machinery.
