Stonehenge Azimuths
by Simon at 21:11 26/01/13 (Blogs::Simon)
In "Archaeoastronomy in the Old World" (D.C. Heggie, 1982), various azimuths are given for the axis of Stonehenge and the Avenue.

I've drawn these angles up and overlaid them on a Google Earth view to better visualise them.

Here's the Google Books copy of Heggie's publication.
