Avebury, England ~ architectural contrast

Constructed around 2600 BCE, during the Neolithic, Avebury is a large henge with a large outer stone circle, and two separate smaller stone circles located at the center. It is a UNESCO World Heritage Site named Stonehenge, Avebury, and Associated Sites. It's also a Scheduled Ancient Monument. Unlike Stonehenge where the public typically cannot get up-close to the stones, Avebury allows almost full access.
