Stonehenge is very impressive, but why build it so close to the A303?

It’s on a road junction; it must have been an ancient roundabout.

Thousands of years ago some ancients pissed up on mead dragged some stones and arranged them in a pattern.
Thousands of years later all the hippies thinks its cool.

They got 30 tonne stones from wales to stonehenge

NickFitz got his 30 stones to the keyboard from the sofa for a few posts on this thread.

Stonehenge was privately owned. It was bequeath to the nation with the proviso that the public had free access. The problem is, once you are dead, there is not a lot you can do about your Will

It wasn't bequeathed, it was gifted by Cecil Chubb a good few years before his death; and free access was only for residents of local parishes: Cecil Chubb - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
