In the 1940s, the stones were moved by teams of horses.

A busy day at all British henge sites, as staff work to move the stones forward an hour. Twice a year the stones at Avebury are moved for Daylight Saving Time.pic.twitter.com/qqeOKH2qzE

Joe Oak, one of the rangers at Avebury. ‘We want to make sure that the stones are as accurate as when they were first put up. It’s a huge effort, but it’s worth it to preserve the integrity of the site.’ https://www.nationaltrust.org.uk/news/moving-the-avebury-stones-for-british-summer-time …pic.twitter.com/i53Ds7L9em

That's because they're actually foam replicas standing in for the real stones which are on loan to Greece. It's all part of a cultural exchange of artifacts - for a few pieces of marble in the British Museum. http://thefoamhenge.com

I hope they know the difference between the marks for inches and feet. If they're not careful they could end up with replicas that are 1/12th scale

Can they not just watch channel 4 plus 1 for a bit and save the effort?
-
Channel 4 plus 1 came about because civil servants forgot about the time change. Was cheaper to start a new tv channel. Problem solved!
