Neolithic Huts at Stonehenge

The Stonehenge Visitor Centre is going to include three reconstructed neolithic homes, according to an article in the Architects Journal.

English Heritage has issued an invitation to tender for the construction work which is valued between £50,000 and £60,000[2]

The houses are intended to help to ‘create a sense of prehistoric people using, working and living in the landscape’.

The homes will be prototyped at Old Sarum in early 2013 – I think the intention is that a lot of the work will be done by volunteers.
