Littlestone,
You need to download the annoying ActiveX thingy. It prompts you when you click on the empty space where the image should be. Once downloaded, use your arrow keys to "walk" amongst the stones. It's not bad, and gives an idea of what it "might" (my word, and inverted commas) have looked like from within the trilithon circle - very closed in.
Regards,
TE.

That's the overwhelming feeling the stonehengineers all came away from Foamhenge with, too.

Thank you TE.

Blindingly obvious to most, I guess, but the 1610 illustration of Stonehenge at http://faculty.arts.ubc.ca/sechard/antiquit.htm which BuckyE refers to can be accessed by left clicking on the empty box (with the red x at top right) and then right clicking on 'show picture'.

Worth a look as this might be the earliest illustration of Stonehenge that we have (don't forget to "click on the boxed Latin legend to open a new window with a detail of the English captions to the drawing." (especially "C. A place where mens bones are digged up." :-)
