Durrington Walls

Visit the Stonehenge 'builder's village' Durrington Walls, a large henge situated in the beautiful Wiltshire landscape. The site consists of a large circular earthwork with a diameter of over 500m. Within the earthwork are two large timber circles, thought to have been used for ceremonial purposes. The site is believed to have been constructed around 2600 BC, making it one of the earliest known examples of this type of monument. It is thought that Durrington Walls was used as a ceremonial centre for the local population, and is an important archaeological site that provides insight into the lives of our prehistoric ancestors.

Woodhenge

Woodhenge is a prehistoric monument that was built during the Late Neolithic period. The monument consists of a series of six concentric rings of wooden posts, consisting of 168 posts in total. The posts are arranged in a symmetrical pattern and were possibly connected by lintels. Woodhenge is thought to have been used as a ceremonial site, and it may have been aligned with the movements of the sun and moon.

Stonehenge

The power of Stonehenge lies in its inspired evocation of our shared past. A fusion of imagination and history.

Although many theories and ideas have been put forwards over the centuries to answer the enigma of ‘what is Stonehenge?’, perhaps of more significance is why this monument evokes the need in people to travel vast distances to walk amongst these stones and throughout this landscape. The answer to this may be beyond our current understanding, but what we do know is this ‘force’ on visitors is not new. Archaeological evidence indicates Neolithic and Bronze Age peoples travelling (perhaps over weeks and months) the length and breadth of the British Isles and continental Europe to stand in the midst of this testament to human ingenuity. Like these ancient travellers, you too should pilgrimage to Stonehenge along paths well-worn and truly experience this iconic symbol of Britain and our shared past humanity.

Windsor Castle

Windsor Castle is of a size and magnificence unrivalled in England.

Founded by William I in 1070– the Norman motte and bailey still dominates – Windsor Castle has been occupied by nearly every monarch since (the present King included). Centuries of embellishment has resulted in one of the most impressive palaces in the world.

The gorgeous gilded interiors of the State Apartments and Englands finest Gothic building in St George’s Chapel (burial place of Henry VIII, Charles I, George III and Elizabeth II), are only two of the many highlights this royal residence has to offer visitors.
