My biggest objection would be the cost of a tunnel.


That would be one of mine as well. It might be worth remembering though that the new visitor centre, “...is financed almost entirely by Heritage Lottery Fund money (£10m), English Heritage commercial income and philanthropic donations including significant gifts from the Garfield Weston Foundation, the Linbury Trust and the Wolfson Foundation.” Doubt if a Stonehenge tunnel would get that sort of investment (there’d be no payback) though there might be some, and with help from the State it might be achievable.

The alternative is this :-(
