Spring Equinox 2017 – sunrise Monday 20th March in Stonehenge!

Equinox 20March2016 - George and Lorraine
English Heriticage will open their gates to our Stones around 5 a.m. ish on Monday 20th March 2017, when the equinox sun will rise East.

Some of us will be camping the night before in the track west of the Stones (entrance from Larkhill or left from the A303 driving towards Amesbury – if coming the other way pass the Stones and U-turn at the roundabout).

Please bring firewood and drums!

2016 Winter Solstice Sunrise Wednesday 21st December

Stonehenge solstice sunrise will be at about 8.15 a.m on Wednesday 21st December 2016 –  (though it may be cloudy)

English Heriticage will open a carpark around 5.30 a.m. from where you can walk or catch a shuttle bus to the Stones. And there are special buses from Amesbury and Salisbury.

But access to the drove from the dangerous A303 entrance  is closed and from the Larkhill north end will be closed from around sunset Tuesday, there will be access through the English Heriticage Car Park to the drove until about midnight, then there’s nowhere to park until about 6 a.m.

At least that’s what I understood from a planning meeting I went to at Amesbury recently, seems a bit mad to me!

Check out one of the many facebook groups for more uptodate information.

See you there – [dicegeorge]

Monday evening Stonehenge gates open for Solstice sunset and sunrise (20 June 2016)

2015 Summer Solstice night in the Stones
2015 Summer Solstice night in the Stones

English Heriticage have announced changes for this year’s summer Solstice: they will be charging £15 per car for parking in their carpark, and searching people for alcohol and other drugs.

However entry to the Stones (from 7pm) is still free if you walk there or catch one of the many buses from Salisbury.

There is much outrage on facebook about these changes, and mutterings of protests.

Last summer the centre was quiet early on, please bring more drums for a live acoustic rave in the centre from sunset to sunrise!

Access to monument field – 7pm
Sunset – 9:26pm

Sunrise – 4:52am (Tuesday)
