This week, the English Heritage Podcast brings the sights, sounds, and even the smells of 4,000 BC to life as host Amy Matthews visits Stonehenge for a remarkable experiment in archaeology: the building of a full‑scale Neolithic Hall.

Join host Amy as she explores a groundbreaking experimental archaeology project: the construction of a full-scale Neolithic Hall and discover how English Heritage curator of properties Win Scutt, experimental archaeologist Luke Winter, and English Heritage volunteer Suzie are using authentically recreated stone tools and ancient techniques to bring prehistory to life.

Amy explores the realities of 4,000 BC, the incredible timber engineering of our ancestors, and how this immersive space will serve as an educational gateway for thousands of schoolchildren – and adults.
