First time I saw Stonehenge was as a kid when you could walk up to the stones - no visitor centre, no fences or ropes, no barriers - and you could even find you had it to yourself.
It is this memory I still have of it (and some old photos) and in this respect imho it is a monumental achievement in its era.
It is unfortunately in this era of instant gratification it is now so loved to death by the tourists and the lunatic fringe that ultimately I’m fairly sure it will end up completely fenced off to protect it.
