Avebury Stone Circle<\/span><\/strong>
Panoramic Tour.<\/span><\/strong><\/center> <\/p>\n

Avebury<\/strong>was built during the Neolithic period and is the largest complex of Stone Circles & Avenues on earth.<\/p>\n

Avebury was ‘Rediscovered’ by John Aubrey<\/strong> in 1648. He published an account of his frequent visits in his book ‘Monumenta Britannica- Templa Druidum<\/strong>.’<\/p>\n

In the 1720’s the antiquarian William Stukeley<\/strong> mapped all the surviving Avebury stones and left a huge record of his visits in words and drawings. He published his findings in his book ‘Abury, A Temple of the British Druids<\/strong>‘.<\/p>\n

The site was restored in the 1920’s & 30’s by Alexander Keiller<\/strong> who’s posthumously published book ‘Windmill Hill & Avebury Excavations 1925 – 1939<\/strong>‘ is considered the most complete account of the complex..<\/p>\n

Avebury<\/strong> is now a World Heritage Site. <\/em>It is currently badly managed by the National Trust…<\/p>\n
