It seems that whatever the holes' initial function, it changed to become a funerary one during Phase 2.

Thirty further cremations were placed in the enclosure's ditch and at other points within the monument, mostly in the eastern half.

Fragments of unburnt human bone have also been found in the ditch-fill.

These stone sockets are only partly known (hence on present evidence are sometimes described as forming 'crescents'), however, they could be the remains of a double ring.
