I understand that sarsens 17, 18, 19, and 20 are missing from Stonehenge. These sarsens are forty ton blocks. What is the most current theory on what could have happened to them?
This is an interesting read on some recent research from this year. It's suggested that cultures after Stonehenge was built may have dismantled some of the stones (possibly already fallen stones) to use as building materials in their houses/surrounding land etc http://www.theguardian.com/science/2014/sep/10/stonehenge-teeming-chapels-shrines-archaeology-research
