We don’t usually promote commercial items but Nancy Wisser who runs Clonehenge is one of the good guys, so here’s what she has just tweeted …
“There is now a Clonehenge shop on Etsy. So far There are only 3 items up: 2 versions of the enamel mug, and a t-shirt for shipping within the U.S. and possibly Canada. I hope to add a ceramic mug plus add print-on-demand companies for the U.K. and Australia”. https://www.etsy.com/shop/Clonehenge

Of course, there’s already a massive amount of Stonehenge merchandise available at the English Heritage visitor centre. (In fact, 10 years ago to this very day, we remember we published our article complaining that tender documents showed it would have 1,380 sq m of Retail, Catering and Back of House facilities and only 600 sq m for Interpretation and Education!)

So please, when she has them available, buy your Stonehenge-related mugs and t-shirts from Nancy at Clonehenge, not elsewhere!
