Great Cursus, Stonehenge
Date Added: 18th Sep 2010
Site Type: Cursus
Country: England (Wiltshire)
Visited: Yes on 10th Oct 2006
Great Cursus, Stonehenge submitted by TimPrevett on 10th Oct 2006. One of the National Trust interpretive signs for the Cursus area. Such a small percentage of the visitors to Stonehenge actually get to see there. In a 4 hour walk from Stonehenge, taking in the Cursus, Old and New King Barrow, Cuckoo Stone, to Woodhenge and Durrington Walls, returning along some of the Avenue, I met 1 other person. If you want some solitude near Stonehenge (I was going to say peace, but helicopters were buzzing around very often), explore the wider landscape. It's a treat.
