About:
The site was first recorded by John Aubrey in 1648 when many of the stones were still standing. He claimed that the Sanctuary was the name given to the site by the local people. A century later William Stukeley recorded the site shortly before it was destroyed by a farmer. In 1930 Maud Cunnington used Stukeley’s drawings to rediscover it and carried out extensive excavations.
