I emailed English Heritage, and they had this to say....

"Good day Maelwen,
The Winter Solstice celebration is usually much lower in key than the Summer celebration. Usually there is a Managed Open Access between about 7.30am until 9.00am, weather permitting. This year it will be on Monday 21st December 2009. There are upwards of 100 people for this and no booking is required. No parking is offered though. Please see www.english-heritage.org.uk/stonehenge or possibly www.english-heritage.org.uk/wintersolstice in due course for further information.

I'm making the trip that morning from Bristol with my father. It will be my first visit to Stonehenge, I'm very excited!

Hope you have good time, last year i couldn't believe the amount of people that turned up , they where turning up all though the night, thanks for the info about the 21 st because on the link above to the stonehenge druids site it says access is on the 22 nd, so i would have missed it, thanks again!!!!
