    There already are multiple other standing stone circles in the UK

    Though finding one in Doggerland would be really cool

      Also, a henge isn’t a stone circle. It’s a ring-shaped earthwork. What we think of as Stonehenge is a ring of Megalithic standing stones (not all standing stones are in a circle incidentally) in the middle of a henge.
