East Field. Alton Barnes. Wiltshire

Reported 29 - 07- 10  

This pattern was part completed by a team of five circle hoaxers over several hours. The team was interrupted by a number of people who had been camping on Knapp Hill. The team fled the area and disappeared into the night. Two of the hoaxers then came back to the pattern and asked the campers to keep what they had seen quiet so they (the hoaxers) could come back the following night to finish their vandalism of the field.

We strongly recommend that all researchers and interested parties visit this pattern and give it a serious critical examination. Observations taken from this man-made event would be a valuable asset when considering future circle formations as fake or 'real'.
