Stonehenge almost a WWII airfield

Posted | 0 comments

During World War II, when England was more concerned with survival than protecting cultural history, the Royal Air Force considered knocking these stones down to make way for an airfield. I can’t say I got any spooky or strange feelings from the place, but I am glad the British Empire, and Stonehenge, endured.
