Come along on Saturday 19th March for a coach trip to the ancient sites of Stonehenge, Avebury and Uffington White Horse!

About the day
We are travelling by coach to visit some of England's oldest & mystical sites!

Stonehenge
Stonehenge started to be built in 3100BC and is today one of the most famous sites in the world. At the site, I will tell you more about Stonehenge and why its there.

Options when we arrive:

  • pay to take the mini-bus down the road to view it close up, about 4 metres away (it costs £20 to do this, pay when you arrive). If you are an English Heritage or National Trust member its free to get the mini-bus.

  • The rest of us will walk the 1 mile down the road and view it from the wire fence for free (about 5 or 6 metres away).

Avebury
Avebury is about 20 miles north of Stonehenge, it dates to about 2800BC and is the largest stone circle in Europe. Its free to walk on the site, which covers over 281 acres and you can even touch the stones! I will guide you round the site telling your about the stones. Its free to view the stones.

Uffington White Horse
Uffington White Horse is a huge chalk drawing on the top of a hill which dates back to 900BC. It was probably a tribal symbol, as the remains of Uffington Fort lies behind it. The site is the highest point in Oxfordshire and gives stunning views across the countryside. I will tell you more about the site when we are there. Its free to view the horse.
