Great little museum, good information on the area, Free for national trust members, otherwise you must pay, they even let the dog come in which was great.

Way too pricey for what it is. Tiny (around 5 meters) and not that informative. Staff was nice, though.

A fabulous, if small, museum depicting the history of the stone circle and the surrounding area. It's well laid out, and the content is easy to read. Having spent a few days exploring the historic sites of this area it helped to further enhance my understanding of the past. Definitely worth a visit and, if you're a member of English Heritage, it's free to enter
