I started the Hidden Wiltshire website in April 2017. It's hard to believe that was over 9 years ago. Despite living in Wiltshire for some years before that, I hadn't explored much of it. So I took it upon myself to go exploring and share what I could with a wider audience by writing about it and photographing it.

So the Hidden Wiltshire website was born.

Initially it was just me. Then others started to get involved. Paul Timlett became a prolific collaborater, and some years later so did Elaine Perkins. We also had guest writers like Steve Dewey who wrote about ancient tracks across Salisbury Plain and Wiltshire rivers, and John Grech who had vast knowledge about historic military locations.

We expanded out and did lots of other things too. At one time I was a regular on BBC Wiltshire radio. Paul and I did the Hidden Wiltshire podcast, and roped Elaine in for the last few - I think we did 45 in total ! And we had listeners from all over the world. We even produced Hidden Wiltshire books.

At the moment the site is going through a quiet period, as we've all been a bit diverted on to other things. But the website is still very much alive and kicking and I plan to start adding content in July. And you can still catch me out and about - I still do several talks a year about Wiltshire to local history societies and museums. I also do the occasional guided walk in the landscape.

In the meantime there is a wealth of content at www.hiddenwiltshire.com so please do have a deep dive and get reading. In the meantime I leave you with a photo of Rybury Camp, near All Cannings. This goes deep into Brtains ancient history, as there is evidence of a Neolithic causewayed enclosure up there. By the time of the Iron Age, there was a hillfort on the top. In the field below by All Cannings Cross there was an Iron Age settlement. A few summers ago I took some drone pics for Tim Daw the local farm owner and the crop marks were showing some interesting stuff -you can see this in the Historic England record here https://historicengland.org.uk/listing/the-list/list-entry/1468191

Thanks for reading folks - Glyn Coy.

⏳ Three days to go.

This Saturday and Sunday, 13 & 14 June, we mark 800 years since the bishops were carried down from this hill. And we're marking it in the only place that makes sense: right where it happened.

Here's what to expect: On both Saturday and Sunday Old Sarum will come alive with medieval crafts, demonstrations and hands-on activities – a rare chance to see, hear and even smell the Middle Ages.

On Sunday visitors are welcome to join a short 1:30pm service led by the Acting Bishop of Salisbury and Dean of Salisbury, joined by the Cathedral choristers that will take place within the footprint of the old cathedral.

🕚 Old Sarum is open 10am-5pm with the medieval encampment open 10:30-4pm.

🎟️ Standard admission (15% discount for advance bookings), Free for Members of English Heritage.

Bring the family, bring a friend, bring a curiosity about the people who built this place. We'll see you on the hill.

Eight hundred years ago, three Bishops were lifted out of their graves on this hilltop and carried two miles downhill to a brand-new cathedral.

Why move the dead? Why abandon a great cathedral that had stood fir 150 years? And what really happened afterwards (clue: the answer isn't what most people might think)?

Over the next two weeks we will tell you the whole story, chapter by chapter. And on the 13th and 14th of June, we will mark the 800th anniversary of that day, right where it happened.
