Q. When should THE winter solstice be celebrated at Stonehenge.

A. on December 21st at sunset.
A few years ago no one went to Stonehenge for the winter solstice, it was only the summer solstice that drew the crowds. Now the winter solstice is beginning to become just as popular, but for the sun rise on the shortest day not the sun set. Both ideas the summer sun rise and set and winter sun rise are complete misunderstandings of what the original religious propose of the monument was!
