Avebury - World Heritage Site

The entire village of Avebury in Wiltshire has been named a World Heritage site by UNESCO. This is due to the incredibly large henge that encompasses a good part of the village. In fact a number of roads go through the henge.
Within a mile or two of Avebury are two other neolithic structures. West Kennet Long Barrow is a 5-chambered barrow at the top of a hill on a local farm and Silbury Hill, a 130-foot man-made hill.
