Avebury

Saturday 28th November (end 7th week)

Area: Avebury and around

Just to the south of the Marlborough Downs sits Avebury stone circle, one of the largest in Europe, within a remarkable prehistoric landscape. We are hoping to take in as many of the archaeological sites as possible – before heading up onto the Downs and admiring the views and the source of the standing stones. So, prepare to enter burial chambers, marvel at a man-made mound reaching 40m in height, hug a stone or thirty and stretch your legs to blow away 4000 years of accumulated cobwebs!

Organiser: Rachel Wood (rachel.wood(a)keble.ox.ac.uk)
Leaders: Rachel Wood, Michelle Barton, Cristina Fernandez
Grid Ref: SU102699
Departure Time: 8am
Return to Oxford: Late on Saturday evening
Cost: £10
