1993 CROP CIRCLE REPORT BULLETIN #4
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
June 11, 1993
|
|
|
|
From Rosemary Ellen Guiley, director
|
|
|
|
Crop circle activity in England continues at a modest pace, according
|
|
to reports from members of the Centre for Crop Circle Studies.
|
|
Farmers are increasingly resistant to permitting access to formations.
|
|
Some farms that have been sites of significant activity in recent
|
|
years are closed to visitors this year. Irritation continues over
|
|
human-made formations. Near the Silbury Hill cark park, a note was
|
|
found pinned to a tree threatening hoaxers.
|
|
|
|
The most recent activity is given first. The Center for Crop Circle
|
|
Studies, England, has assigned a quality rating scale from 1-9, with 1
|
|
being the poorest, especially in terms of "authenticity" (of unknown
|
|
origin) and 9 being the highest. Ratings are given in some reports.
|
|
Map reference numbers are for Ordnance Survey maps.
|
|
|
|
June 1: Beckhampton, Wilts. Ringed circle with radial design in
|
|
wheat. Estimated diameter of circle 15 ft., and 10 ft. between circle
|
|
and ring. Found muddy, believed to be human-made.
|
|
|
|
May 26: Peasemore area, N. of Newbury, Berks. Circle in rape, 19-m.
|
|
laid straight off center, swirled anticlockwise. Nearby (100 yds.) a
|
|
7-m. circle, anticlockwise, believed to have been formed later.
|
|
Rating: 6.
|
|
|
|
May 22: Beckhampton, Wilts. Tiny circle in unspecified crop. Rating:
|
|
4.
|
|
|
|
May 20: Tawsmead Copse, Wilts. Unconfirmed report of circle activity
|
|
associated with UFO sighting. Circle-UFO activity reported here last
|
|
summer.
|
|
|
|
May 17: West Ilsey, near Harwell, Oxon. Map reference SU 484845. 80-
|
|
ft. tight, neat circle in rape, with a 1.5-foot spiral and a ridged,
|
|
"ripple wave flow effect." Rating: 6. No sign of entry to field or
|
|
bruising to flowers. Difficult area to access. Inspected by Stanley
|
|
Morcom, Lucy Pringle and Una Dawood, CCS.
|
|
|
|
May 13: West Overton, Wilts. Map reference SU135698. 60-ft. circle
|
|
in rape with sunburst center. Rating: 6. Remote location, found by
|
|
Busty Taylor, CCS. Later was inspected and videotaped by two
|
|
individuals. Samples taken.
|
|
|
|
May 13: Near Ropley, Hants. Map ref. SU642339. D-shape growing in
|
|
grass. Possible wind damage. Rating: 1.
|
|
|
|
May 12: Glazedgate Crs., Totnes, Devon. Circle reported in Torquay
|
|
Herald. May be reference to 1992 activity.
|
|
|
|
May 11: St. Neots, Camb. Tailed shaft with large and small circles in
|
|
wheat. Visible from housing opposite field. Found by Montague Keen,
|
|
CCS. Farmer denied access for inspection.
|
|
|
|
May 5: The following five events were reported by Maria Ward, and were
|
|
confirmed by a private pilot. They all occurred near the Ridgeway
|
|
Trail. Details still unavailable.
|
|
|
|
1: Stoke Hayward. A large circle in wheat.
|
|
|
|
2: Ivinghoe, north of Tring. A large circle in wheat.
|
|
|
|
3: Leighton Buzzard. 30-ft. ring in rape.
|
|
|
|
4: Childrey Field in Bucks. A 50-ft. circle in grass, not rape as
|
|
originally reported. Busty Taylor believes that this was a natural
|
|
depression in the land.
|
|
|
|
5: Near M40 before Wantage. 50-ft. circle in rape.
|
|
|
|
May 1-2: Aston Rowant near Ridgeway, Oxon. 60-ft. donut-shaped ring
|
|
in rape. Reported to be "perfectly laid, bent not broken," swirled
|
|
anticlockwise with an eight-foot standing crop center. The site is
|
|
not far from a dumbbell found in wheat last July.
|
|
|
|
May 1: Saltford near Bath, Avon. 115-foot circle with seven
|
|
grapeshot satellites on one side and four satellites in wheat.
|
|
Probable human origin. The formation is marred by muddy bootprints,
|
|
and the wheat shows evidence of having been trampled by foot.
|
|
|
|
April 21: Near Kennington, Oxon. Double ring in grass.
|
|
|
|
1993 surveillance/research projects in England:
|
|
|
|
...The CCS is working with small teams of Germans (a group called FGK) and
|
|
Americans to measure environmental changes (sonic, ultrasonic, electromagnetic,
|
|
etc.) in high activity areas, specifically the Vale of Pewsey, near Silbury
|
|
Hill, and in the vicinity of Alton Barnes. Teams will work from early June
|
|
through the end of July and beyond if necessary.
|
|
|
|
...Project Argus, the U.S.-U.K.-Canadian sampling effort mounted in 1992, will
|
|
not return to England this year. Soil samples from last year are nil, and plant
|
|
sample results are inconclusive. Publication of a final report awaits
|
|
additional funding.
|
|
|
|
... Dr. W. C. Levengood (Pinelandia Biophysical Laboratory in Grass Lake, MI)
|
|
is working with Nancy Talbott (Cambridge, MA) to continue plant sampling in
|
|
England. Levengood's findings of significant results in samples to date are
|
|
contested by some plant biophysicists.
|
|
|
|
...Dr. Steven Greer, founder and international director of CSETI (Center for
|
|
the Study of Extraterrestrial Intelligence), Asheville, NC, will again
|
|
experiment for CE5's and circle activity in Wilts. Unconfirmed if he will
|
|
return to the Carson farm in Alton Barnes. The Carsons do not want a repeat of
|
|
last year's crowds.
|
|
|
|
...Andrew Collins, English paranormal investigator and author of The
|
|
Circlemakers, will work out of the Carson farm in late July (where Project
|
|
Argus was based last year). His project, ORGONE93, will investigate a
|
|
relationship between biologically or organically produced energy (orgone), crop
|
|
circles and luminous anomalies.
