Stonehenge History
The huge stone lintels are mortice-and-tenoned to the upright stones and are curved to follow a circle. Some stones weigh over 50 tons each, with some brought from the Preseli Mountains in Wales! When you're here, you can walk through the historic Neolithic houses of the Neolithic people who lived there 4,000 years ago.

Stonehenge is renowned for its incredible engineering feats, achieved over 4,000 years ago. The site is made up of 56 massive stones, some weighing up to 25 tons, carefully arranged in a circular formation. The stones were transported from great distances, including the smaller "bluestones" from Wales, over 150 miles away.
Families can enjoy Playhenge and Kids' Dig, interactive activities designed to engage children with hands-on learning experiences, making the visit both educational and fun for young archaeologists.
