Welcome back to day two of the tour of Salisbury Plain. I have been an archaeologist for MOD on Salisbury Plain for over 15 years now. We’ll see some highlights but please do tweet your own photos, drawings, films, links and objects that this prompts #SPTAarchaeology
Today we are on the Centre of the Plain – Complete with Artillery impact area and World Heritage site (though the stones aren’t ours!). These were some of the 1st purchases thus on the 1906 map. There are Boer War trenches here and the maps also note archaeology #SPTAarchaeology
We Start from Westdown Camp again and will use the modern military map to guide us round. When you see a Number in brackets such as [1] this refers to a stop marked on the map. Lets go! #SPTAarchaeology
