Broken Sarsens Found In Amesbury Track




North of the A303 there is a track that follows the disused railway to Larkhill. Where it leaves the main road Sarsen stones have been used as part of the stone mix. The photo shows them as the large reddish stones proud of the gravel.

The colour and shape of them makes it clear they are small natural stones and not smashed up bits of the missing grey stones of Stonehenge.
