A low, gray English morning slides past the Mercedes as it heads west from London—fields opening into broad chalk downland, hedgerows cutting like seams in the landscape. By midmorning the stones rise from the Salisbury plain: Stonehenge stands blunt and weathered, each megalith a quiet question against the sky. The Visitor Centre’s displays ground the mystery in archaeology and method, while the turf around the monument invites slow, careful walking.
