Snow and ice failed to stop people visiting Stonehenge to watch the
Stonehenge Solstice
sunrise on the winter solstice, 22nd December 2010
Almost 2,000 people gathered at the stones which were surrounded by a thick blanket of snow.
As well as the traditional druid and pagan ceremonies, a spontaneous snowball fight erupted as people enjoyed the cold weather. A good time was had by all.
I will be uploading photos and videos later today – can you see yourself?
