    Tips

    Hiking

    Like the larger megaliths that make up the outer ring of Stonehenge, the Cuckoo Stone is a sarsen stone and was once a standing stone. It has since fallen but is still a familiar landmark and is part of the wider Stonehenge Landscape. It's believed that the Cuckoo Stone was the ceremonial centrepiece for several burials around 2000 BC.

    Hiking

    Parking alongside Woodhenge. Nice easy walk. Rukbag with water, a good pair of walking boots, very little shade on a hot day otherwise very enjoyable

    Hiking

    Location signage, that is, how to locate the cuckoo stone, is non-existent! Once you pass through the gate next to Woodhenge you’ll see the National Trust sign. The stone lies way off to your right at about 3 o’clock direction from the sign. If the grass is long it won’t be visible!
