Among the Ancient Stones at Avebury

Today we braved the rain, cold, wind, and mud to see the Avebury Henge monuments. This prehistoric site from 3,000 BC contains the largest stone circle in Europe. We were most fortunate to have a guided tour by Stephen Bird, the Head of Heritage Services at Bath and North East Somerset Council in the U.K. and a longtime friend to Lee University. It was a fascinating tour. (Images are cropped in the image gallery. Click on individual images to see the whole view.)
