The correct answer is - South Wales.
Stonehenge is a prehistoric stone circle monument, cemetery, and archaeological site that is located on the Salisbury Plain which is about 8 miles (13 km) north of Salisbury, Wiltshire, England.
The 5,000-year-old Stonehenge has an outer ring of 20 - 30 ton sandstone blocks and an inner ring and horseshoe of 3 - 5 ton volcanic bluestone blocks
The smaller bluestones made of igneous and other rocks were known to have been transported from 100–150 miles (160–240 km) away, whose remote origin tracks down to South Wales.
