A good read Roy, thanks.

I'm sure you already know that Waden Hill was a barrow cemetery with nine barrows known to have been on it (see link below, scroll down to Number 3).

Anyone visiting the Wiltshire Heritage Museum in Devizes should look out for back copies of WAM ... usually for sale at £1 a copy.

Yes the area would take on a completely different look if everything that was once there was still there wouldn't it June. Our problem today is putting two and two together wherever you may be to make some sense of it all knowing pieces of a jigsaw are always missing.
