스룩스톤‬에서 가장 멋진 ‪8‬개의 천연기념물

Can someone please be happy/laughing with me that Google Translate turns Amy's "henge and timber monument" into "Denkmal für Hühner 🐔" in German? - Great 😂😂😂

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!

Strangely stumbled across this place as was driving to another location. So glad I turned off road and followed the sign to it.

No circus and no crowds like at Stonehenge. We were alone here and could look at everything in peace. On the other side of the road there are two rest areas for picnics with a beautiful view.

Great view of stone henge

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.

This stretch of downland is particularly notable for its tumuli (ancient burial mounds) at Old King Barrows and New King Barrows. It's just a short walk from the town of Amesbury and the famous Stonehenge. There are around a dozen beautiful yew trees to see here, as well as oak, ash, hazel and larch.

Very interesting
