Each year on the 21th of June visitors from around the world gather at Stonehenge overnight to mark the summer solstice and to see the sunrise above the stones. (We’re attending as well, go here for live updates and pictures from the Solstice: first photographs from the solstice.) At dawn the central Altar stone aligns with the Slaughter stone, Heel stone and the rising sun to the north-east. The Summer Solstice at Stonehenge is certainly the ‘ancient history’ summer event in Britain to attend.
