The Amesbury would be Stonehenge, which I don't think anybody has planted upside down. If you mean the Avebury stone the it was a woman called Maud Cunnington. Maud Cunnington came to Avebury in 1911 and righted, among other stones, a stone in West Kennet Avenue which was resting on its side. 
Another local stone restorer called Sir Alexander Keiller who disliked her intensely spread the charge of the stone being righted upside down.

As it turns out later work suggest that Maud may have been right in the first place.
