YALHS members visit the barrow cemetary at Silk Hill on Salisbury Plain, the larger group are viewing the one of the impressive disc barrows (whilst standing in or close to a pond barrow). This was the end of a facinating trip to some of the rarely seen archaeological sites of Salisbury Plain under the excellent guidance of Richard Osgood head of the MOD Defence Estates Historical Environment Team.
