Recenter Map To This Location

The village of Avebury (NT), made up of a church, several houses, shops, and an old pub, lies within a vast circle of standing stones surrounded by earthworks. The site covers 28 acres. Unlike Stonehenge, where the stones are larger, the site smaller and the crowds sometimes overwhelming, Avebury is a peaceful spot. Here, armed with a map, you can wander amongst the stones and wonder why 4,000 years ago Bronze Age man spent what has been estimated at 1½ million man-hours to construct such a temple.
