Stonehenge fights back

Posted in: News and Updates

News this morning from BBC Wiltshire that Stonehenge was "the most visited paid for tourist attraction in the South West" in 2010, beating the Eden Project into second place.   This must be doubly galling for the never knowingly over-sold Eden, to lose out to an untidy bunch of old rocks that have no focus whatsoever on climate change education (not to mention the terrible toilets), and to be mis-labled as a mere "tourist attraction".  But what foresight those Neolithic types had building it in Wiltshire, so close to London, Oxford, Bath, Winchester and Stratford, so very much on the beaten track.   I should declare a disinterest here as I maintain a strict neutrality in these matters, never going to either.
