Celebration circles
Ever since man wanted to praise, to memorialise or to celebrate, he's chosen the circle as one his favourite geometric forms.
Stonehenge, just a short distance up the road from us, is the ancient form ... but there's many more modern forms too.
 The modern stone circle - rather a different form - at Heaven's Gate, on the Longleat estate, was constructed very recently.
 So was the circle of railway trucks at Ystrad Mynach in the Cardiff Valleys.
 Perhaps the best known of modern celebration circles, though, is the Millenium Wheel in Central London .... (written 2006-09-27 06:49:00)
