About This Book

An architect's treatise reconstructs and analyzes Stonehenge, offering measured descriptions, proportional and geometric arguments, and comparative references to classical monuments. It surveys historical opinions, contests attribution to Druids, and proposes a reasoned restoration based on field observation and continental experience. The work blends antiquarian description, architectural theory, and illustrative reconstruction to defend and elucidate the monument's original design and construction.


Errata.

Folio 10. line 6. These words,
[The Romans overthrew not the Temples, or razed to the Foundations, any of the sacred structures of the Druid’s and Britans made of stone, or other materials, which he might as readily have done, if they had used any such: but positively,] should have been printed in the ordinary letter.
