The Neolithic Echoes Labyrinth begins
The area to build the labyrinth was determined by the trees that had to be thinned, so, after picking an orientation, the next job was the gathering sections of felled ash to mark out a labyrinth shape.
Getting the logs together is all very well, but on a practical level, the question has been where to start - in the end, the crossing point near the centre seemed like a reasonable place to begin. Setting out rough markers to indicate levels/circuits and give 'eye guides' so that the labyrinth, from the air, would look like a reasonable pattern and not just a giant intestine. We won't be able to see it from the air for a while, so just using a ground level best guess.
