Question
when was the great stonehenge temple completed
Hello Sophe.
It is believed that Stonehenge was built in stages over a period of several hundred years. The earthworks were completed about 2500 BC and the great stone monoliths we see today added in about 2100 BC, therefore the structure is about 4100 years old.

Expertise
I have a good basic knowledge of British political history, but my speciality is the Kings and Queens of England and Scotland from 927 AD. Please no social history questions, it's not my strong point and I'm unlikely to answer them.
