Ogbourne St Andrew War Memorial

We passed through Ogbourne St Andrew, a small village in Wiltshire, on our way back north from Avebury. I spotted this War Memorial, a cross above an arcing plinth, by a minor junction on the A 346 road.

Memorial, Great War names and dedication:-

White Horse at Hackpen

Wiltshire is seemingly full of those hill figures called white horses, carved out of hillsides.

As we were passing close to one on the way up from Bath I decided to detour a little and photograph one.

It was the one at Hackpen:-
