There's a mention of the parchmarks paper on Tim's web site, here:

Parchmarks at Stonehenge, July 2013.... Volume: 88 Number: 341 Page: 733–739
Despite being one of the most intensively explored prehistoric monuments
in western Europe, Stonehenge continues to hold surprises. The
principal elements of the complex are well known: the outer bank and
ditch, the sarsen circle capped by lintels, the smaller bluestone
settings and the massive central trilithons. They represent the final
phase of Stonehenge, the end product of a complicated sequence that is
steadily being refined (most recently in Darvill et al. ‘Stonehenge
remodelled’, Antiquity 86 (2012): 1021–40). Yet Stonehenge in its
present form is incomplete—some of the expected stones are missing—and
it has sometimes been suggested that it was never complete; that the
sarsen circle, for example, was only ever finished on the north-eastern
side, facing the main approach along the Avenue. A chance appearance of
parchmarks, however, provides more evidence.
