  • PH 'Wessex White Horses'
    Notes from a Preceptor’s Handbook A Preceptor: (OED) 1440 A.D. from Latin praeceptor one who instructs, a teacher, a tutor, a mentor “A horse, a horse and they are all white” Provincial Grand Lodge of Wiltshire Provincial W Bro Michael Lee PAGDC 2017 The White Horses of Wessex Editors note: Whilst not a Masonic topic, I fell Michael Lee’s original work on the mysterious and mystical White Horses of Wiltshire (and the surrounding area) warranted publication, and rightly deserved its place in the Preceptors Handbook. I trust, after reading this short piece, you will wholeheartedly agree. Origins It seems a perfectly fair question to ask just why the Wiltshire Provincial Grand Lodge and Grand Chapter decided to select a white horse rather than say the bustard or cathedral spire or even Stonehenge as the most suitable symbol for the Wiltshire Provincial banner. Most continents, most societies can provide examples of the strange, the mysterious, that have teased and perplexed countless generations. One might include, for example, stone circles, ancient dolmens and burial chambers, ley lines, flying saucers and - today - crop circles. There is however one small area of the world that has been (and continues to be) a natural focal point for all of these examples on an almost extravagant scale. This is the region in the south west of the British Isles known as Wessex. To our list of curiosities we can add yet one more category dating from Neolithic times: those large and mysterious figures dominating our hillsides, carved in the chalk and often stretching in length or height to several hundred feet.

The car park above the Westbury White Horse can be reached either via a street named Newtown in Westbury, which also carries a brown sign pointing the way to Bratton Camp and the White Horse (turn left at the crossroads at the top of the hill), or via Castle Road in Bratton, both off the B3098. Start at the top of the escarpment in the open area in front of the car park containing two benches, with the White Horse clearly visible to your right. There are fine views here over the vale below. Go down steps and through the gate to the right and walk all the way along the northern ramparts of Bratton Camp, which is an Iron Age hill fort, with the top of the White Horse initially to your left.

  • We Strongly Support the Objections Expressed by Devizes Town
    Chairman: John Kirkman, Witcha Cottage, Ramsbury, Marlborough, Wiltshire SN8 2HQ Wiltshire Branch Phone: 01672 520429; e-mail: [email protected] Kennet District Group E/2011/1139/OUT Care Village on greenfield land alongside Quakers Walk We strongly support the objections expressed by Devizes Town Council and Roundway Parish Council to the development of a care village on the remaining field to the east of of Quakers Walk, south of the new housing development and north of the allotments. Sustainability The proposed built development would bring to the north-east corner of Devizes an unsustainable extra burden of resident population. Though the residents in the 80-bed care home would probably not be mobile, the 129+ residents in the apartments and cottages would generate movements themselves, and visitors to the whole new community would generate increased traffic. That would predictably worsen the congestion on London Road and the main through-routes, and increase the already illegal pollution levels around the town.. The development would cover for ever an area of agricultural land which, together with the adjoining much-valued Quakers Walk, should preferably be protected as a Special Green Space for Devizes, in accordance with the forthcoming NPPF guidelines, para.130. Relevant Plans and the Status of the Land In the first sentence of Part 1 and elsewhere (eg Pt 2 para.. 2.2) The Design and Access Statement describes the application site as a “development site”. Use of that expression is misleading. Following the Inspector’s decisions on the draft Kennet Local Plan (see his Report para. 2.236 and 2.244c) the application site is “unallocated land”.
