Where are the missing Stonehenge stones?
There have been reports of at least one of the stones being used to construct a bridge in Berwick St. James. Whether or not other stones have also found their way into the construction of more modern structures is anyone's guess. Alternatively, perhaps Stonehenge was never completed although personally, I'd like to think it was. It would seem an awful waste to go to so much effort to build as much as was built and to not have finished the job.

A mysterious stone circle that was built in ancient times?
Stonehenge is a monument in southwest England that was built between 3000 to 2000 BCE. Radiocarbon dating suggests it was first built around 2400 and 2200 BCE, while other theories suggest 3000 BCE. The surrounding earth bank has been dated to about 3100 BCE. It is in the middle of a complex full of Neolithic and Bronze Age monuments, as well as several hundred burial mounds.
There are no written records from the culture that erected Stonehenge meaning there is little evidence about their purpose or means of construction. While Stonehenge has many myths and legends surrounding its history, theories suggest it was likely used as a place of healing, ancestor worship, and/or burial.
