Silbury Spring

"After years of low rainfall and extraction by water companies, Wiltshire’s chalk springs and rivers were failing. That all changed at the end of 2012. As the river Kennet burst dramatically into life, record rainfall brought a rare opportunity for Steve Marshall to explore ideas about Silbury Hill, an enigmatic mound raised in Wiltshire over 4,000 years ago."

I downloaded the latest ed. on my phone just last night. Looking forward to reading. The cliffs end stuff looks interesting too.

Aye, just re-subscribed. The mag’s a bit pricy but it’s so full of good stuff, and they do such a good job, it’s a cause worth supporting.
