Description
Stonehenge, Salisbury, Wiltshire, England.Stonehenge is surely Britain's greatest national icon, symbolizing mystery, power and endurance. Its original purpose is unclear to us, but some have speculated that it was a temple made for the worship of ancient earth deities. It has been called an astronomical observatory for marking significant events on the prehistoric calendar. Others claim that it was a sacred site for the burial of high-ranking citizens from the societies of long ago.

It was out of the holiday season so the numbers around were fairly limited. Since I was born in Wiltshire I also know quite a lot of people there, " Contacts" if you will
Thank you for all your comments and favs!

I've heard its also a really fancy clock.
The whole country is pockmarked with those things from what I've heard. Ever read Uriels Machine by Christopher Knight and Robert Lomas?? It's kinda iffy in some spots and technical to a fault, but its a good read either way.
Escellent Shot.
Kinda makes me wonder how big the thud was when the pillars toppled over.
