How close does the game get to the real place?
In the game
The ancient stone circle on Salisbury Plain, standing much as it does today.
The real place
Stonehenge was built in stages from about 3000 BC; the big sarsen circle went up around 2500 BC. It was already thousands of years old when the Vikings reached Wessex.
Visiting
Visitors walk around the circle on a path; going inside is only possible on special early or late access tours. It is an English Heritage site; book a timed ticket online, especially in summer and at weekends.
