This crop circle was first reported on 24 June 2026.
The formation straddles two different crops: most of it lies within a field of wildflowers and poppies, while a smaller portion extends into a field of young wheat. It measures approximately 180 feet in diameter.
The design is a quintuplet formation, enclosed within a large outer ring. What makes this crop circle particularly special is that the majority of it appears within a wildflower meadow, including many red poppies. As the photos in the gallery show, this gives the formation a truly striking and unusual character.
Although rare, it is not unheard of for crop circles to cross field boundaries. In some cases, formations have appeared across adjacent fields, each containing a different crop. There are several variations on this theme, but the idea of boundaries, and the piercing or crossing of those boundaries - is something the crop circles have illustrated many times before.
The Etchilhampton formation seems to speak of a delicate threshold, opening into a beautiful, flower-strewn realm.
Etchilhampton Hill has been home to many dozens of crop circle formations over the years. It also offers a commanding view across the Pewsey Vale, adding further depth and atmosphere to this remarkable location.
