Stonehenge Campaign Appeal

The Stonehenge Campaign exists to lobby, campaign, attend meetings, raise public awareness,and maintain links with interested parties for the reinstatement of the Stonehenge Peoples Free Festival and of religious access to Stonehenge itself, and to protect the Stonehenge landscape and environment.

The Campaign holds monthly meetings in London on the first Wednesday of each month from September to May (except January), to which all are welcome.

We always need help with - money, stamps, stationery, artwork, info and dates of events, gigs, demos, festivals, gatherings, etc.

We also welcome letters or articles for possible inclusion in the newsletter to express a wider gamut of views.


Stonehenge Art

A few artists impressions of Stonehenge were on the kingsway/kisswebsite, some are in the pictures page, others, undocumented, may exist

more are in our printed newsletters, badges, and teeshirts, send us yours, and we'll probably stick it here on the web, and include it in our next newsletter.

Stonehenge is a symbol


Badges

We've a new badge, in colour, send 50 pence and stamps, or download this one and colour it in, then send it back to us!

Beanfield

on the 1st of June 1985 Thatcher's police ambushed our convoy which was heading for Stonehenge to set up the 12th (?) consecutive Stonehenge Free Festival.

    English Heriticage

    English Heriticage claim to own Stonehenge.
    But Cecil Chubb 'gave' it to the nation.
    But the English only arrived in Britain after the Romans when Stonehenge was already a ruin!

    English heritcage have plans to develop Stonehenge on a grand scale, with restaurants and millions of tourists.
    They have plans for a a Stonehenge Park, with which we agree in principle, and they say they want to close the A344 which cuts Stonehenge - so why haven't they???


    Equinoxes

    We've been visiting Stonehenge every Solstice and Equinox ( Spring, Summer, Autumn and Winter) ) since December 1985, sometimes getting into the Stones, sometimes meeting outside the fence

    Lots of groups have set up Fin Cells.

    Stonehenge Free Festivals

    From 1974 to 1984 there was a Free Festival at Stonehenge. It was 90% great. Someone should write more about it here.

    Tash has a pictures of the Solstice in 1984ish (26k)
    and another of Wally Hope's Ashes
    See his website

    Helen has a photo of the Solstice in 1984 ish

    HAWKWIND played 'rock music' at Stonehenge Free Festival in 1984 (and many other years) There exists a video of them then, has anyone got it, could you grab it and put it here?

    Two Roads at Stonehenge

    the A303 road

    The A303 is the London to Cornwall trunk road, it passes a few hundred yards south of the Stones.

    For a report on a roads conference in Salisbury see our December1995 Newsletter.

    There were many plans to gouge out a wider road, or a tunnel, or a bypass through unspoilt land, but a report in our September 1996 newsletter suggests that they've abandoned all these plans.


    A304

    This road cuts through Stonehenge inches away from the HeleStone, on the other side of the road is the Avenue, two banks which are an integral part of Stonehenge I. They should close this road (- the hundred yards from the English Heriticage visitors' centre to the A303 junction) forthwith, cars could triangulate from the A303 roundabout and continue to use EH's car park until their grand redevelopment plans are implemented, years from now. The A303/A344 junction is bloody dangerous, and unnecessary.

    more road news at ait


    Solstices

    There are two solstices every year, in the winter and in the summer.
    Stonehenge marks them both.

    Summer Solstice

    Not only the helestone and the horseshoe of five tritholons, but also the Avenue (which was originally two white chalk banks) point to the the point on the horizon where the sun rises at the summer solstices, the north-east-est sunrise of the year.
    it's wonderful.

    Torriano Meeting House

    We've been meeting at 99 Torriano Av since 1985, at 8pm on the first Wednesdays of September to May (except Januarys).

    Many thanks to John and Susan, the caretakers.

    See the datelist for details of our future meetings, please come.
    At the meetings we open the mail.


    Stonehenge Videos Page

    http://www.kingsway.ac.uk/kiss/stonehenge/STG-VIDS.HTM" at kiss provided links to about 40M of quicktime movies of us lot in Stonehenge, with music from musicians from Heathens All, and others.

    I hope kingsway dont trash them... but they have


    VE Day, Monday 8th May 1995

    On VEDay 1995 we jumped the fence at sunrise and spent all day in the Stones!
    It is the centre of my life.

    Walk/Pilgrimage from London to Stonehenge

    We've been walking from London to Stonehenge since 1986, (BC).

    This year, 1997 we're meeting at Battersea Park Peace Pagoda at noon on Sunday the 1st of June for a picnic ( with musical jam);and leaving the park at 2 (ish).

    There's usually a van or boat to carry your kit, and a free meal at the end of the first day's walk.

    Stonehenge Walks page


    Winter Solstices

    At the winter solstices the sun rises at it's southest.
    Some say the winter sunset is unlucky.
    One sunrise, five or six years ago, there was snow, we'd walked from a friends house in Shrewton and hopped the fence,
    I remember taking photos as I approached, but then ran out of film!
