AVEBURY STONES, WILTSHIRE


Ninety miles west of London and twenty miles north of Stonehenge stands Avebury, the largest known stone ring in the world. Older than the more famous Stonehenge, and for many visitors far more spectacular, the multiple rings of Avebury are cloaked with mysteries which archaeologists have only begun to unravel.
On this picture, you can see some of the stones. I don't know the people walking near the stones, but they provide a nice idea of scale.....and what about the greeness of the scene...
