Visitor information for Salisbury and elsewhere in Wiltshire
The first attempt to date Stonehenge was made in 1720 by the brand new Astronomer Royal, Edmond Halley (of comet fame), who used magnetic deviation and the position of the rising sun to estimate the stone circle's age at 460 BC. He was only off by about 2,000 years.
