Camp Green (often called “Danes Camp”) crowns a limestone-capped knoll immediately north-east of St Michael’s Church in Hathersage (OS grid SK 234 819).

Archaeologists now recognise a true Neolithic henge lying immediately south-west of Moulton village, roughly midway between the Swale and Dere Street. The monument is almost 200 m across, with a low earthen bank encircling an inner ditch and a central platform about 110 m wide; the ditch lies inside the bank—the classic “Class II” henge arrangement.
