The Study Centre (behind the Barn Gallery).
An opportunity to exercise the mind (a lot) and the legs (a little) on a day out to the World Heritage Site of Avebury in Wiltshire.
A cryptic treasure hunt at the largest stone circle in Europe
taking in some of the surrounding prehistoric sites.
The key elements of the Indiana Jones movies were being used as the basis for the hunt:
