The Historic England Archives in Swindon has a collection of unpublished photographs from Richard Atkinson's 1958 Stonehenge Excavations. Examining them recently, I came across several of the Altar Stone which provide new insights into this enigmatic stone.
Two in particular of the southeastern end of the stone are of particular interest, which I will investigate in a separate post.
