    Diggers constructing a new access road have uncovered a mysterious serpent-shaped feature, dating from the early bronze age.

    The 60m (197ft) long ribbon of stones, found in Rotherwas, near Hereford, are thought to date from the same period as Stonehenge, roughly 2000 BC.

    The site is in Worcestershire, looks like the Malvern Hills near Wales. Apparently aligned north-south. Would be interesting to know if it ties into anything, I’m aware that the general area is supposedly the ‘Heart of the Rose’.

    Andrew Collins has picked up on this and posted his own thoughts:

    He discusses a Scottish serpent mound, and the similarities to the Ohio Serpent Mound.

    I wonder if there are a series of linked serpent mounds and serpent place names. It would be interesting if you could plot a trail that ran roughly parallel to an established ley line, for example – giving you a “straight line” and a counter-balancing “snaking line”.
