The Historic England Archives in Swindon has a collection of unpublished photographs from Richard Atkinson's 1958 Stonehenge Excavations.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 UPDATE south side of the middle, probably, of the stone are of particular interest, which I will investigate in a separate post.
