You continue to ignore the problems regarding lost distance "alignments " having to change bearing in order to arrive at their putative destinations ,and how the builders of the period would have known when and to what extent to change the orginal bearing .

Your whole point is subjective ,the "shapes " are highly irregular ,who is to say what should be chosen to be considered as the intended bearing when there is no evidence to to support that there was any bearing to consider in the first place .

You are cherry picking by selecting two points from approx 100 mounds,corners at least have some common ground .

I already told you "Even if we go along with that view and measure from the centre of the two extremes the bearing is still way off the great circle that will arrive at Stonehenge " .
Measure the azimuth of these two points then compare with what is required for a great circle to arrive at Stonehenge , subtratct the difference and calculate the error.
The whole idea is fantastical nonsense but going along with the fantasy the best option is to take an azimith from the corners , and the centre of the mounds at these corners , the whole thing is so lopsided any other solution is extreme cherry picking .

It is not only miles off it requires to change bearing to get to that point that is still
wrong .
