Avebury Excavations, 1909. The Timesoi May 21st contained 

 a preliminary account, and the same paper of June 3rd a more complete 

 report of the work done in 1909, resulting chiefly in the discovery of 

 the original entrance causeway on the E. side of the present entrance of 

 the Kennet Road. Reprinted in Wiltshire Times, June 5th, 1909. 



The ditch, in the portion of it which was cleared, proved to be about 40 

 feet wide at the top, 17 feet wide across the smooth flat bottom, and about 

 17 feet deep from the present surface of the silting or 30 feet deep from 

 the general level of the area inside the ditch. More Red Deer horns 

 supposed to have been used as picks, a chipped flint knife, apparently of 

 Neolithic age, and a shoulder blade bone, perhaps used as a shovel, were 

 found on the bottom of the ditch.
