        These road notes will get you out of London directly to the world famous monument at Stonehenge
        and on to the cathedral city of Salisbury.

        Along the way you can make a side trip to Highclere Castle, location for the tv series Downton
        Abbey.

        Navigation notes


        Route 1 on the map


        Starting from the M25 it’s a trip of 64 miles, about a bit over an hour in normal traffic conditions.

        You take the M3 to just past Basingstoke and the A303 to Stonehenge.


        GETTING OUT OF LONDON

        There’s no easy way to escape the great urban sprawl that is London.


        From the north side of London:

        Make your way to the M25, the great ring road that encircles the city, and head west to
        Intersection 12 with the M3.

        From Central London and Heathrow


        Coming from somewhere near central London, find the A4 before merging on to the M4 following a
        gantry sign to “The WEST / Heathrow / Staines / Hounslow”.


        You might also be on the M4 if you are coming from the Heathrow area.
