·--216.109.0.5 (talk) 13:42, 24 September 2010 (UTC)A very light-weight page. Strange to use a picture of a megalithic monument in an article concerning the lithotype itself. I'll have to see what I got last week at Avebury ... nothing close-up of the stones themselves, unfortunately. Something I'll have to remember next time I'm down there.Reply
Searching Jnl.Geol.Soc.Lond, I come up with the following sarsen-related papers :
E. C. Spicer "Sarsen-Stones in a Claypit" Quarterly Journal of the Geological Society v61: pp39-42.
George Maw "On the Occurrence of Consolidated Blocks in the Drift of Suffolk" Quarterly Journal of the Geological Society v23: pp110-114.
I'll see what I can do to update the article.
