Henge 370m north east of Drove Cottage is a Neolithic monument located in Somerset, England. The site represents a type of ceremonial or ritual enclosure characteristic of the Neolithic period, constructed using a circular or oval earthwork formed by a ditch and internal or external bank. Such henges typically date to the later Neolithic period, between approximately 3000 and 2000 BCE, though the precise dating of this particular example would depend on archaeological investigation and finds recovered from the site. The monument's survival as an earthwork demonstrates its significance as a focus for ritual activity in prehistoric Somerset, though its exact condition and the extent of any archaeological deposits remain subject to ongoing assessment by heritage authorities.
