There is another stone to the W in a field in front of a barn, visible from the main circle.

Log Text: Easy to find if you know where it is! Drive or walk out of Avebury along the Avenue and stop at the free parking where the stones end. One the other side of the road is a hedge with access to the field. Walk down the hedge to almost the bottom order nd the stone is n the hedgerow.

Gray Hill stone row submitted by TheCaptain on 2nd Apr 2004. Grey Hill or Gray Hill Stone Row, Monmouthshire, ST437936 - ST438935
Looking to the south down the hill, is a fairly reasonable alignment of 5 stones in a row, which sort of joins between the jumbled stone remains on the top of the hill and the stone circle.

Lanhill submitted by thecaptain on 16th Apr 2004. Lanhill, Chambered Tomb, near Chippenham, Wiltshire, ST877747
At the centre of the southern side is a rock lined chamber, about 2½ m in length by 1½ metres in width, which has obviously been restored, as the roof is now supported on steel bars. The opening to the chamber has a curved, dry stone walled forecourt, and there is a blocking stone across the opening.
