9Stonehenge, Avebury and Associated Sites
Perhaps the most iconic prehistoric site in the UK, Stonehenge needs little introduction. Located on the Salisbury Plain in Wiltshire, this ancient circle of massive stones continues to intrigue archaeologists and visitors alike. Believed to have been constructed between 3000 and 2000 BC, Stonehenge is surrounded by burial mounds and smaller stone circles that together form one of the most important prehistoric landscapes in the world.
Nearby Avebury features one of the largest stone circles in Europe, and visitors can walk among the standing stones, creating a rare sense of connection to ancient rituals and engineering. Both sites offer insight into Neolithic and Bronze Age Britain, making them essential stops for history enthusiasts.
