Just off the busy A3, Butser Ancient Farm and Chalton are signposted. The mill is the highest point around and can be approached by one of four public footpaths as shown on the Hampshire Definitive Rights of Way map. https://www.hants.gov.uk/rh/row/maps/1809.pdfI parked in a field entrance (the field was currently stubble) at the entrance to the road leading to Butser Ancient Farm. When it is busy you could park in the Farm car park and visit the farm itself. It was an uphill walk along path 8 which I used for a TOAL point.The windmill was well above me so I ensured that the max height was set to over 120 metres - normally I fly coastal sites so no need to worry about contours. The site can be approached from the south, nowhere has any useful parking though, you will have to tuck your vehicle on the verge.As the mill is a provate residence it is probably best not to approach too closely.

Parking and TOAL was from Nash Road, 51.422019, -1.873002.Adam and Eve Stones also known as Beckhampton Longstones are two large standing stones which are the only visible remains of Longstones Cove and Beckhampton Avenue.Adam is the larger of the two stones and along with three others formed a four-sided cove known as Longstones Cove which was also part of the Beckhampton Avenue. Unfortunately, the other stones were destroyed in the post-medieval period by a landowner. Adam stone fell over in 1911 and was re-erected in 1912.Adam and Eve Stones are all that is known to survive of the Beckhampton Avenue which was a major ceremonial avenue of standing stones. It's believed that this avenue was connected to Avebury Henge, but there is no evidence to support this theory.https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Longstones

Plenty of local parking available. There is a small car park 5 minutes walk from the windmill but only takes around 7 cars. Another well signposted carpark beside the basketball and tennis courts that has public toilets beside it. Can be quite busy with tourists, sightseers and dog walkers.

Parking and TOAL was in a lay-by North of Avebury, outside of the NT boundary.Avebury henge and stone circles are one of the greatest marvels of prehistoric Britain. Built and much altered during the Neolithic period, roughly between 2850 BC and 2200 BC, the henge survives as a huge circular bank and ditch, encircling an area that includes part of Avebury village. Within the henge is the largest stone circle in Britain - originally of about 100 stones - which in turn encloses two smaller stone circles.Avebury is part of an extraordinary set of Neolithic and Bronze Age ceremonial sites that seemingly formed a vast sacred landscape. They include West Kennet Avenue, West Kennet Long Barrow, The Sanctuary, Windmill Hill, and the mysterious Silbury Hill. Many can be reached on foot from the village. The Alexander Keiller Museum also displays many notable finds from the Avebury monuments. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Avebury

TOAL and parking was in a lay-by on the side of the A4.The monument includes a Neolithic long barrow aligned north east to south west and situated on a gentle east-facing slope, 300m south west of the South Street long barrow. The barrow mound has been slightly disturbed by cultivation in the past but survives as an impressive earthwork which measures 84m long and 35m wide. The mound stands up to 6m high and is flanked to the north and south by quarry ditches which provided material for the construction of the mound. These have become partially infilled over the years owing to cultivation but survive as slight earthworks c.24m wide and 84m long with a depth of c.0.6m. The barrow was partially excavated by Merewether between 1820 and 1850. He discovered evidence of a Bronze Age cremation burial contained in a 'Deverel- Rimbury' style pottery urn and a piece of bronze which was probably part of a dagger. The urn is now located in the Devizes Museum.

Parking and TOAL from the side of White Road which runs through the centre of the forest.Located to the south of Marlborough, Savernake Forest is rich in history and has lots to explore. It is a Special Site of Scientific Interest (SSSI) as well as a registered important historic park, making it the perfect forest for an exciting and educational day out. The history of the forest goes back for a thousand years or more! Its long history has left us with an outstanding legacy of old trees, rich landscapes and diverse habitats. One of the country's oldest trees, the Big Bellied Oak, is 1100 years old, and is very noticeable on the side of the A346. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Savernake_Forest
