We’ve all heard of Stonehenge, but do you know of Seahenge? Over 4,000 years old, the timber circle known as Seahenge is a Bronze Age funerary monument discovered on the beach at Holme-next-the-Sea in North Norfolk in 1998. Archaeologists found an oval circle of timbers set around an upside down oak stump, where they believed bodies were rested prior to burial. An archaeological wood specialist estimates that 50 different axes were used to fell the wood that comprised the walls.
Artist Rose Ferraby made a short film about Seahenge and how it inspired her artworks.
Another interesting setting for a story, placed in either the past or present. What happens next?
