Thousands gather at Stonehenge at sunrise to mark the summer solstice
Large numbers of people have greeted the sun with cheers as it rose over Stonehenge for the summer solstice.
Druids and pagans joined a diverse mix of visitors from around the world to celebrate the longest day of the year at the ancient site in Salisbury, Wiltshire.
On the summer solstice, the sun rises behind the Heel Stone, the ancient entrance to the Stone Circle and rays of sunlight are channelled into the centre of the monument.
