Come and meet the ancestors and see what we looked like 500 years ago!!
Overview of your Bath tour
It is one of the world's best-known tourist attractions; cars and lorries crawl past along the main road and thousands visit each day. It is of course Stonehenge the famous prehistoric stone circle. But come with me to look beyond the stones!! The famous henge is a small part of an extensive prehistoric landscape, rich in mysterious monumental structures, some of which were ancient when the circle of huge stones was built. The area has been a place of legend for thousands of years and new finds only serve to enhance the mystery of Stonehenge rather than solve the riddle of its existence. To quote Henry James "There is something in Stonehenge almost reassuring and if you are disposed to think that life is a rather superficial matter and we soon get to the bottom of things, the immemorial grey pillars serve to remind you of the enormous backdrop of time. " So come along with me to meet the ancestors, find out more about who, how and why and most importantly marvel at the mystery of Stonehenge
