British ancient sites

Photos of a selection of British ancient sites I have visited over the years.
These remains date back 4,000-5,000 years
to the same time as the building of the Pyramids.
We visit Avebury, the world's largest stone circle

This is not a comprehensive guide to stone circles and ancient sites.
These are simply those sites I visited with my camera in former years.
I love these places: they're very special, especially if you stop to bear witness to their subtle atmospheres.
You come away feeling changed.
