Building a World Class Visitor Centre

"It is not possible to simply redevelop the current visitor facilities at Stonehenge as this contravenes the objectives of the World Heritage Site Management Plan. Following several years of studies and consultation, a new site has been chosen at Countess East, 3 km from Stonehenge. It is just outside the World Heritage Site and is easy to reach by road or public transport.
The new visitor centre building will blend into the landscape and make no reference to Stonehenge itself. Internationally renowned architects Denton Corker Marshall have designed a building that is cut into the grassy landscape, with a long sweeping front wall and a single entrance. Visitors will pass through a succession of similar curved walls on their journey towards Stonehenge. The roof will be planted with strips of grass. From the adjoining road, the building will appear to be below ground.
Inside, the visitor centre will offer world-class facilities. There will be exhibitions and audio-visual presentations to help visitors enjoy and understand Stonehenge. There will also be high quality catering, a shop and dedicated space for educational groups. "
