Abstract The abstract describing the content of the publication or report |
Construction of a new visitor centre at Stonehenge in Wiltshire and its new presentation of the monument meant that the landscape of the World Heritage Site (WHS) needed to be re-surveyed to modern standards. The Stonehenge World Heritage Site Landscape Project was therefore started in 2009 by the then English Heritage Archaeological Survey and Investigation team, and this aimed to ensure that there is a full and up-to-date record and understanding of all upstanding archaeological monuments within the WHS. This article gives a broad overview of the scope of the project and some of the more important discoveries that have resulted from it, including the possibility that the so-called 'North Barrow' may be a small henge enclosure and one of the earliest elements of the site. Surveys of the barrow cemeteries have revealed details of the chronological development of individual mounds and barrow groups. The later history of the landscape has also been a focus of the work, including elements such as medieval village remains and post-medieval and modern buildings. LD | ||||||||
