Thomas Hardy set the novel’s dramatic conclusion at Stonehenge in 1891 .

But the author did not know he was sitting in the heart of a large henge-like enclosure.

The enclosure was even older than the famous monument on Salisbury Plain .

It has now been given protection by the government as a scheduled monument.
