Stonehenge
In Wiltshire west of Amesbury at the junction of the A303/A344
Set in the middle of Salisbury Plain, Stonehenge is probably England's best known attraction. The large stone circle dates from approximately 3000 BC to 1600 BC, although experts disagree on the exact dating. Its true use is not known, but it is thought to relate to sun worship or some other religious purpose. It is one of Britain's great mysteries. The site is planned for extensive redevelopment.
HOURS: Open June - Aug 9am - 7pm. The rest of year open from 9:30am - pre-dusk.
