The proposed development would undoubtedly cause irreparable damage to the Stonehenge World Heritage Site and its surroundings. There are many sites of archaeological interest in this area which may also be damaged, I cannot believe that this site which is too delicate for people to touch or walk on should be subjected to major earthworks. From a road users point of view, I don't believe this is necessary, the road could be widened on the opposite side and a viewing lay-by provided. As I grew up in this area I am a frequent traveller on this stretch of road and what I see is traffic slowing down to have a better look at the Stones, why not make it easier for people? I also think that people should be able to view the Stones briefly without having to pay.
