I have seen a lot of recreations of stone dragging, pushing, levering etc.
all done with relatively small stones.
I'd like to see a group haul a 42 ton sarsen up a hill!

Hi Pete,

as one of a number of people who dragged a 11 or 15 ton stone up a 1:11 slope for The National Geographic channel, I'd say that the feat is eminently do-able; it's just a matter of extrapolation.
