Thousands of people visit Stonehenge every year

Tourists will now have to pay to park and have a look at the famous stones. This was previously free.

English Heritage is introducing charges of �2 per car and �10 per coach.

The fee is being introduced in a week-long experiment.

Most visitors will not be affected, say English Heritage, because the charge will be deducted from the �5 entrance ticket.

The organisation said it expected as many as 5,000 visitors on a peak summer weekend, and that the car park only has space for a limited number of vehicles.
