• Saturday 20th March - Spring Equinox, the Stones open around 5 a.m.
• why stonehenge is believed to have been an astronomical calculator
• Winter Solstice 2009 is h17:47 Monday 21st December, therefore the southest sunrise is on the Monday, at h08:02 but some druids prefer the first sunrise after the solstice so they have asked English Heritcage to open their gate on the morning of Tuesday 22nd December.
• Peter Carson of EH writes: I am able to confirm that at last month’s Roundtable Group meeting and again yesterday the date of the access to Stonehenge for people wishing to celebrate the Winter Solstice was discussed and agreed that it should take place at dawn on Tuesday 22nd December. The access will commence at 7.30 – 7.40am and only when it is considered sufficiently light to ensure safe access.. Visitors will be asked to vacate the site by 9.00am. It will be of great assistance if these timings are widely circulated – many thanks for your assistance.
• Visitor Centre consultation deadline now 26 November!..
