The mother of all circles is just one of the many phrases used to describe this awesome sight.  The massive complex of swirls appeared at the top of Milk Hill near Alton Barnes, Wiltshire. It could not be seen from any public road and was discovered by the pilot of a micro-light aircraft on August 13, 2001.
The geometrical pattern is regarded as the piece de resistance of the 2001 crop circle season. The pictogram measured more than 800 feet across and covered about five hectares. Dozens of 'croppies' trekked along footpaths to view the phenomenon, with almost as many taking to the sky in micro-lights, light aircraft and helicopters. The formation ruined about £1,400 worth of corn for Stanton St Bernard farmer Brian Read. |
