At Sutton Hoo you can shop till you drop, view copies of goodies still at the BM, see a few genuine baubles, watch a film and never have to trek through the cold and the wet to see the real mounds at all - and most visitors never do. There is a viewing platform for the brave souls who do stagger that far, but the comments are inevitably ones of disappointment. " Where is the ship/treasure/gold/body/sword/helmet?" "They are just hills!" "Is that all there is?" That is why I don't want an OTT visitor centre at Stonehenge that will diminish the real thing.
