Trying to add Grey Wethers stone circle on Dartmoor which is located here on the map:: https://www.google.co.uk/maps/place/50%C2%B037'54.0%22N+3%C2%B055'32.8%22W/@50.6315491,-3.9267763,25...
This also backs up the location :
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grey_Wethers
http://www.megalithic.co.uk/article.php?x=263950&y=83150
but if I attempt to add it it says not applied. It's clear from zooming in on Google Maps that the double stone circles are there so I'm not sure why this is continually rejected. Can someone see why it's not accepted? I couldn't see anything on the map which suggested someone else has tried adding it.

Couple of points to note, even though something exists in the real world, that doesn't necessarily mean it is mappable. There are many strange rules regarding Google Maps and some things can't be added to the base map - in these circumstances a custom map via My Maps https://www.google.co.uk/maps/about/mymaps/ might be appropriate.
Having said that, someone tried to add this feature in September 2015 https://goo.gl/Mtfwu4 and it has been pending Google Moderation since then. You'll probably be better off asking your question on the Map Maker forum

Dear @GraniteApe I have checked your place and those links you provided too. Also tried to mark this place to check whether it is rejected or not. I am not sure what you are saying. Is it either map rejects your submission when you click submit button or it accepts at that moment and rejects later? If it is the first case then I did not find such case. If it is second one then you can contact with your regional head or expert via this link. https://productforums.google.com/forum/#!topicsearchin/map-maker/category$3A(other-regions)%7Csort:r...
Thank you so much for question and happy new year 2017 too.
