This was terrific fun. The Song of Solomon is irresistible, isn't it, and, really, once you get that association in your mind to Cowley it would be enough to give anyone a fit of the giggles - rather akin to trying not to laugh in church when I was a child :)
One thing (you can sigh heavily at this point & curse the fact that someone read this who lives in the vicinity...) - there is actually only one "ring" at Cissbury. There's a photo & more info here: http://www.findon.info/cissbury/cissbury.htm When I first moved to this part of the world, there was a ring of trees on the top, visible from quite a distance, but the great storm of 1987 took nearly all of them down. It's still pretty spectacular, though :)
