Breamore (pronounced Bremmer) is in Hampshire and always has been, unlike some of the neighbouring parishes which have fluctuated between Hampshire, Wiltshire and Dorset over the centuries. I was brought up in Breamore, still live less than 25 miles away and have co-written and published five books and booklets on the history of the village, including my illustrated childhood reminiscences and a best-selling 8-page guide to the Miz-Maze. (see )

Though much larger in diameter, the Breamore labyrinth has exactly the same pattern as the Chartres Cathedral floor tile 'maze'
<> any jpgs please?
Thanks to David for the link to http://www.labyrinthsociety.org which I had not come across before - especially the ref. to the little carved stone labyrinth pattern which I'd photographed last year on a wall near the main door of Lucca Cathedral in Tuscany, on which I'd not found any information.

again: fascinating
but the layout of that Gotland labyrinth looks somehow familiar - i'm sure i've seen similar labyrinthine designs elsewhere, but i just can't remember where?
