Learning is fun out in the country!

Children can walk through history at Avebury on the Marlborough Downs, scale Liddington hill fort on the escarpment that rises to the south of Swindon, and stroll in the Vale of Pewsey.

This historic landscape is filled with stories of ancient civilisations and their habitations, the journeys made, and battles won and lost. Find out more about Wiltshire’s historic landscapes and the conservation programmes for woodland, wildflowers and hedgerows.
