Stonehenge features on a new first class stamp from the Royal Mail commemorating World Heritage Sites.
The stamps, part of a series produced in partnership with the Australian postal service, celebrate a number of famous natural and man-made landmarks.
Australian storyteller Francis Firebrace launched the set by re-enacting an Aboriginal ceremony at the Stonehenge site in Wiltshire.
Australia's first class stamp features the Wet Tropics of Queensland.
Second class stamps feature Hadrian's Wall and Uluru-Kata Tjuta National Park, while basic airmail letters depict the Heart of Neolithic Orkney and Purnululu National Park.
