Durrington Walls
Looking north along the western banks of Durrington Walls. This is a huge earth banked circle, far larger than the more famous nearby Stonehenge or Woodhenge. It is thought to have housed a Neolithic settlement of a few thousand people, the largest of its kind in North-West Europe. It features an avenue aligned to the winter solstice and is believed to have been a complementary site to the earliest phases of Stonehenge. One theory is that the Stonehenge users lived here, and the link between them along the River Avon represents the transition from life to death.

Sheep at Durrington
In the area around the ancient Durrington Walls is pasture downland. There are so many people visiting the walls that the sheep are obvious and do not run away as they would do in less frequented areas.
