This is an old idea, and it’s known to not be true, the quarry used has been identified.

I understand your skepticism, Civ.

Three points...

(1) The Bluestones are not part of the famous outer ring. They are inside the outer ring. 46 different kinds of stones and boulders are found inside the outer ring, and almost all of them have an origin that is west of Stonehenge, which is the direction the glacier came from.

(2) The theory of human transport was proposed and universally accepted in the 1920s. Incredibly, there have been only three or four published papers during the next century that support that theory. No quarry tools or transport devices have ever been discovered from the construction period.

(3) The linked paper has been reviewed and published in the open source E & G Quaternary Science Journal. The author is a retired Professor of Geography.
