Stonehenge II

Local nameStonehenge II
LocationIngram, Texas, United States

Stonehenge II is a concrete sculpture in the Texas Hill Country, US, built in homage to the original Stonehenge monument. Stonehenge II was conceived by Al Shepperd and built with the help of his friend and neighbor, Doug Hill. Originally located on FM 1340 west of Hunt, Texas, Stonehenge II now resides on the campus of the Hill Country Arts Foundation in Ingram, Texas.

According to the signage at the site: "Stonehenge II is not a replica; it is about 2/3 the size of the original, and it is not oriented to the sun, as is the original. Rather, it is Hill's impression, in steel and concrete, of the nearly 5,000 year old circle of stones on the Salisbury Plain."In addition to the constructed and real stones comprising the monument, there are also two fabricated Moai, or Easter Island statues located at the Hill Country Arts Foundation. These imitation Moai are made of the same material as the Stonehenge II stones.
