The vehicle eases off the A303 and the flat, chalked downs open like a stage; the stones stand a short walk from the roadside, austere and wind-buffed. Visitors step out onto short turf and towards the ring, the air carrying the faint bray of skylarks and the distant hum of traffic. This private transfer frames Stonehenge as a pause between cities — a concentrated hour of standing-still history before onward travel.
