Then we journey through the very heart of the plains passing Silbury Hill, the largest man made earthern mound in Europe constructed using primitive spades around 2,600 BC before stopping for photos at Avebury, the largest of the regions stone circles (dating from a similar time period to Stonehenge and noticeably larger.) The final part of the day is spent exploring Oxford, revered as one of the world’s greatest academic institutions, with charming honey coloured stone buildings set around ivy-clad quadrangles.
