  • The slabs are actually made out of molded concrete, rather than quarried stone blocks.
  • We brought a friend from Melbourne with us today, and this is just a note to say how much we enjoyed our time at Stonehenge Aotearoa this afternoon. Thanks Richard for your fantastic tour (your knowledge is immense), and for signing the books we've bought. We were also really impressed with the professional audio visual introduction. We will be back!. Fantastic!
