Knowlton Church and Rings are a good example of a Scheduled Ancient Monument in England. Located

in the ancient landscape of Cranborne Chase and surrounded by barrow cemeteries and earthworks, the church

is eleventh century but much altered in the fourteenth century. Remarkably, it stands within a well-preserved

ceremonial Neolithic Henge monument of c. 2500 BC. Consolidation of flint core work, tamping and

pointing, the use of rendered brick structural supports and bronze corbel bars are classic interventions of the

Ancient Monuments Division of the Ministry of Public Building and Works (c. 1950). Scale by Sam the

retriever.
