Stonehenge
Re: The Shop

I think there is a consensus that there should be a shop, but that the visitor should n't be forced or persuaded into it.

As an aside I would also underline how loathsome and brain reducing the content of the EH shop at Stonehenge, and not a patch on the recent stocking policy of the NT shop at Avebury thanks to the woman in charge. An example being the democratic approach to publications, where at Stonehenge you could not until the recent edition even buy Chippindale's book, if you wanted a book it had to be EH's or an approved, there was no mention of Druids anywhere and no mention of the restoration (drum banged once again). That is another good reason to take Stonehenge out of the hands of those that have abused and mismanaged for the last century.
