| DIRECTIONS (from
ND Classroom Building): Take the train from London's
Paddington Station to Swindon. At the Swindon Rail Station, catch
the #49 bus (Swindon, Devizes, Trowbridge line). Ask the driver
to stop at the Red Lion Pub at Avebury (it will be obvious, you drive past
some of the large standing stones as you enter the villiage).
As you face the pub, you will see large standing stones to your right.
Follow the line of stones around to the site Museum. It is worth
purchasing the site booklet to have a copy of a map of the major landmarks.
The map illustrates a footpath to Silbury Hill and West Kennet Long Barrow
(a large burial mound you can enter).
There is also a bus that
runs from Victoria Coach Station to Swindon (half the price, twice
the transport time). The directions from Swindon remain the
same. |
