Last year there was considerable media interest in a line of anomalies discovered by ground sensing techniques beneath the bank at Durrington Walls.

They have been interpreted as buried stones by the team lead by Vince Gaffney who discovered them, others such as Mike Parker Pearson believe they are empty post holes or compact chalk masses.

During the first three weeks of August 2016 they have combined forces to excavate an area to find out what is there.

The dig is open to the public, do go along.
