Beyond that, we'll have to wait and see what's planned as the Airman's Corner option could mean a lot of different things.
Something resembling an immigration detention centre according to one councillor -

"PLANS for the new Stonehenge visitor centre at Airman’s Corner were unveiled on Saturday and immediately condemned as “a missed opportunity”.

"The proposed building “looks more like an immigration detention centre than a place where you feel part of something ancient and mystic”, said city and county councillor Paul Sample."

why dont they just build one that looks like a burial mound?
then they could go down under it, and it wouldnt stick out on the landscape, and they could make it look ace, with all stones round the entrance, and stuff like that.

and if there is going to be food, make it a bit cheaper and normal.
