The museum itself has superb displays of Neolithic & Bronze Age Wiltshire, and is well worth a visit. The exhibition itself is on now til January 2013, go and have a look if you get the chance! I was over in Devizes on Thursday, called into the museum and had a preview - didn't realise the exhibition hadn't yet opened as it was all set up. Loved it! PS: Free admission during half-term week apparently. I visited on Friday. Albeit I am familiar with Pete's work I didn't know what to expect from the title 'Ancient Wiltshire'. For me there was a coherence connecting location, construction, and relationships. In this sense 'Ancient Wiltshire', was reminiscent of Colt Hoare's 1812 work that famously stated 'We speak from facts not theories’. One can get a lot out of revisiting this exhibition, so I will go again. You don't have to pay to get in if you join, that way you can visit the museum and library whenever without paying, and you get the wonderful 'WAM' journal each year in the post.
