Good luck with the ongoing struggle. I would like to see a camping ground near Avebury, having had to struggle for years. I used to cycle to lots of sites and hide in hedgerows/copses in a bivvy, but I know this doesn't help regarding group celebrations. The problem with Avebury is obviously the conflicting interests of religion/village life and custodians. A sacred/religious site is ill-managed as soon as the custodian is not part of that religion. Avebury is like open-season for many Earth-centred religions, many of whom are low-key, many of whom aren't. It's this huge three-way divide that surely is at the centre of the problem at Avebury. I'm sure the ideal solution is getting the villagers on yer side, which might not be so easy, but may open up a local field for rent/camping in time?
