My first pass on Avebury Stone Circle. In my view a more impressive monument than #Stonehenge. An artist friend thought the fleeting clouds contrasted with the permanence of the stones. I’ll take that! #Lino #Linocut #Prehistory #Prehistoric #Neolithic #Henge #Monolith #Wiltshire #Shadow #Stone

Balfarg Henge, whose modern setting in the middle of a housing estate on the north-east edge of Glenrothes in Fife would be very alien to its ancient builders. This ritual site dates back over six thousand years. More pics and info: https://www.undiscoveredscotland.co.uk/glenrothes/balfarghenge/index.html

The amazing prehistoric henge and cairn at Cairnpapple Hill in the Bathgate Hills. It's over 5,000 years old and on a clear day can offer magnificent views across central Scotland taking in Arran in the west and Bass Rock in the east.

This just arrived from outer space (via the postman) - the new HENGE album, 'Alpha Test 4'. It's even signed by the four beings from another world.

Maelmin Henge (reconstruction)
“The reconstruction is based on the Milfield North henge and is around 4,000 years old. The original Milfield North henge was located in a field near to the reconstruction site. There are other henges located nearby too but these are only visible from the air. In the central area of the henge were three pits - two of which are thought to be graves.”

The rag tree at #Avebury stone circle. I’ll leave you to decipher the symbolism of the #crow. Magical moment in a magical place. #prehistoric #Neolithic #Megalith #Henge #votive #ribbons #NewAge #NeoPagan #GreenReligion #Spiritual #Wiltshire

I found this relic from 2005, a bottle of "Sacred Vale" - Air from the #Thornborough henges (yes really) a slightly-batty-but-heart-in the-right-place idea to raise money for the Save Thornborough campaign. Not opened so the sacred air is intact! Label carefully prised off to photo and reattach (pic 2). #FindsFriday #Archaeology #henge 1/2

Beautiful morning for a walk along the Maelmin Heritage Trail.
This reconstruction is based on the late Neolithic/early Bronze Age Milfield North henge, located in a nearby field. It was one of many henges along the Till Valley, overlooked by the Cheviot hills.

A good news heritage story: two of the three Neolithic Thornborough henges in North Yorkshire to be given to the nation and cared for by EH (hopefully without an overpriced shop and visitor centre):

24/12/2022 - Quiet walk to Tuach Hill stone circle. Just two stones left but it's an interesting site. Stone circle with 'henge' is not common round here.

From this past September, the Beltany stone circle in County Donegal, Ireland.
