The Thornborough Henges are located within a distinctive and complex landscape that has been shaped over millennia by a combination of glacial forces, river systems, and post-glacial climatic changes. The landscape of Thornborough is defined by its geological foundations and the dynamic processes that transformed the area long before human presence.
