Early Henges

During the initial discussion about henges and henging, @Sundaeg1rl confessed a secret. In her dim and distant past, she had previously henged. We were all intrigued. These are from 1994.

BeachHenge

@bird42 loves her henges. So much so she took off to the beach and made her own:

BEACHHENGE

She muses: "Sadly we watched the tide wash them away. It was poetic."

How to Henge

Henging is easy. All you need to do is take a minimum of 3 things and form the shape of a henge. If this is not an obvious instruction, check out the other henges to see how it's done!

If you need a little more support, Blu-tack or sticky tape may be used, but extra kudos will be given for henging without sticky assistance.

Also, as your progress in your henging, you might wish to play around with lighting, backgrounds, etc etc. That's entirely up to you.

Now all you need to do is get your thinking cap on and begin henging! What are you waiting for?

What is a Henge?

A henge is a prehistoric architectural sculpture, often comprising a stone or wooden circle. They are said to have been used for ancient ritual purposes, and many believe these places still hold magical properties.

The most famous henge is Stonehenge:


...but there are many more dotted all over the world. Have you been to one? If you have, send us a picture!
