Stonehenge for the eclipse

Hi and thanks in advance.

I have been to stonehenge once before but my mother and my wife has not. My mum is stage 4 kidney disease and wants to see them and the eclipse as it may be her last chance and I am thinking of taking them for the eclipse on the 12th. When the site closes at 6, is everyone made to leave at 6 or do people linger around. Are they likely to let people stay for like 1 extra hr for the eclipse? The position of the eclipse at the time means you can’t see the stones unless you are on the site, i don’t believe you can see both from the public foot path.

It would nice if they didn’t rush everyone out and opened an extra 1hr.

If we can’t stay until 7 if anyone has any better suggestions to see it that will be great.

Thanks in advance
