Power tools disturb the spirits living inside the stone which causes them to depart and find different rocks to live in.

A structure like Stonehenge must therefore necessarily be made exclusively by hand tools.

Just prop up some big rocks in a really big circle and call it a day, then go to the pub.

It's that easy!

No joke though there's a spiritual sanctuary in rural Pennsylvania where they're making their own stone circle. Every year they have a festival where they use ropes to prop up a new giant stone, and then they bury it so that it stays put.

It's a really cool place, I think it's called Four Quarters. You should check it out if you ever get the chance. They also host raves, medieval cosplay festivals, all sorts of cool stuff.

And they built their own suspension bridge across a ravine! One of their members is an engineer by trade. The thing is legit!

Sounds cool but I'm already pretty near the original stone henge, grew up in Wiltshire.

Ah, that's pretty neat! I've always wanted to explore the area around Bristol/Glastonbury/etc

Look up Avebury if you want a stone circle you can actually go around. Much larger and there is a pub in the middle of it. If you like hill walking there are also the white horses
