Went there on the 21st , the winter solstice. Adam @von Poop will now mention hippies & pagans . PS. @Otto it's England not Englang .
We didn't see any naked . Might have been too cold. We got there later to go around Avebury Manor. Avebury Manor and Garden

Children of the Stones- what a great series! I read the book as well. Had a major crush on Katharine Levy (Sandra).
Just been back there on a miserable , grey , dreary day. Looked at the Christmas decorations & had a cream tea. Here's some photos.
Always remember watching the tv show Children of the stones as a kid. Don't remember if I ever made it to the village though. Children of the Stones - Wikipedia
Hippy. Any good eye-spy hippies? Had some very funny evenings at Avebury. The naked wedding we stumbled upon a golden moment. Extra fun points for explaining to the nutters in that (brilliant) pub how the stones were placed 'aesthetically' in the C20th.
The chap from work who is a witch was due there at 13.30 for a ceremony but we pushed off before then. He said about 92 people turned up for the Gorsedd. Some pics.
