Stonehenge - the stone circle

Stonehenge day trips take you to the must see attraction of the United Kingdom. Not bad for something that has been baffling historians to this day. Maybe you can find the answer!

What we do know is that Stonehenge was built in several construction phases spanning at least 3000 years, although there is evidence for activity both before and afterwards on the site, perhaps extending its time frame to 6500 years.

Even though the last known construction of Stonehenge was about 1600 BC, and the last known usage of it was during the Iron Age, where Roman coins, prehistoric pottery, an unusual bone point and a skeleton of a young male were found, we have no idea if Stonehenge was in continuous use or exactly how it was used.

By the beginning of the 20th century a number of the stones had fallen or were leaning precariously, probably due to the increase in curious visitors clambering on them during the nineteenth century. Three phases of conservation work were undertaken which righted some unstable or fallen stones and carefully replaced them in their original positions using information from antiquarian drawings.

Today, Stonehenge is a listed World Heritage Site, and Anderson Tours is pleased to offer multiple coach tours for you to visit this ageless icon. Our Stonehenge day trips range from a half day basic tour all the way up to private viewings with special access into the stone circle. Stonehenge tours depart from London daily.
