During his flight after the battle of Worcester, Charles spent some days at 

 Hele House, near Amesbury. On October 7th he "spent the day [in 

 company with Col. Philips] on the downs in the vicinity of Stonehenge, 

 reckoning and re-reckoning its stones, in order to beguile the time."

Stonehenge was " erected by the Danes . . . to be a Court Royal, or

 his views with much learning, as is evidenced by the numerous quotations 

 from both Greek and Latin authors which his book contains.
