it's being organised by Bishop Grossetete Teaching College because they are opening up a new archaeology lab. They've got Julian thingy (Meet the Ancestors) coming along as he's done this rebuild thing before.

My class are one of three, and we're doing the final bit where we get to raise the 'stones' etc

And the kids are between 7 + 11. It involves wood and paper mache on a GRAND scale!!

I hope you come back and let us see the results!

Perhaps a 'thank you' for the replies to your original request might now be in order. Then again perhaps I belong to a generation where 'thank yous' were more common and I should now accept that I'm even more out of touch with reality than I'd hitherto thought ;-)

Julian is a good chap, he has just handed over a magnificent painting of Stonehenge, one of only two known to show the props used to hold up the stones, to the Wiltshire Heritage Museum.

Best of luck with your project, and I would still use the Chippendale book, it is very good value.
