From the A303 in Wiltshire, motorists can catch sight of the megalithic structure of Stonehenge. But as a primary route for both commuters and holiday makers the road is notoriously traffic-clogged, and plans to upgrade the road have been decades in the making. However, the plans face strong opposition. They include building a road tunnel under the World Heritage Site in Wiltshire and costs have surged as high as £2.5 billion ($5.3 billion). John Adams is the chairman of the Stonehenge Alliance, a group dedicated to fighting the project that they consider too vast and intrusive to the prehistoric site.

Ade Edmondson joins Joanna and Stephen to kick off season two! The actor, comedian and musician discusses his own complicated relationship with classical music, his jack-of-all-trades mentality to learning instruments and why his Dad never approved of Led Zeppelin. We also hear about Ade's own experience making music and reveal Jennifer Saunders' top driving anthems.

It was an important and historic day for Wiltshire when we recorded the podcast as we waited for the decision of the courts on the judicial review of the Government's decision to build the A303 tunnel past Stonehenge and the Winterbourne Stoke bypass. Will the courts allow the legal change against the process for arriving at the decision to build, or will they decide the process was not legal? Will it be the end of decades of wrangling? Whatever your view, the decision will be known by the time the podcast goes live. But either way today will be remembered for generations to come as the day that Glyn and Paul recorded Episode 16 of the Hidden Wiltshire podcast! But first a roundup of the last two weeks in Wiltshire. In fact it's four weeks since we recorded as Episode 15 was put together before Paul left for his trip to Shetland and Orkney. Whilst he was unable to share his thousands of holiday snaps (mercifully this is an audio production) Paul did share his thoughts about the connections between the truly remarkable prehistoric sites on Orkney (such as Skara Brae, the Ring of Brodgar, the Ness of Brodgar, the Stones of Stenness and countless more) and the many monuments we have in Wiltshire. The craftsmanship and technology exhibited in the dwellings built by Neolithic man at Skara Brae in particular are astonishing considering they date from around 3300 BC. They include a drainage system more advanced than that used in Medieval Britain some 4,800 years later. Whilst Paul galivanted around Scotland, Glyn held the fort in Wiltshire. The latest Hidden Wiltshire guided walk with Wiltshire Museum was to one of our favourite spots at Bratton and Luccombe Springs where Glyn met the owner of Luccombe Mill. His disagreements with various parties over rights of way across his land has given him a degree of notoriety but it seems he has improved access to the Springs and has ambitious plans for a couple of old pumping stations there. Glyn posted a new walk on the Hidden Wiltshire website (link below) taking in the Gallops at Beckhampton and discovering a new (to us) clump at Witches Plantation. Despite its proximity to the A4 it's possible to find yourself alone in this stunning and, of course historic, landscape. Glyn has also been flying his drone again recently and has posted some stunning aerial footage and stills on the Facebook Page and in the Facebook Group for contributors. Then on to the main subject of this episode. This sort of follows a walk Paul did in March 2019 on the Pewsey Downs to the east of the Pewsey Downs car park between Walkers Hill and Knap Hill. Despite Glyn's insistence we will not be calling this episode of the podcast “Golden Balls”! The blog Paul wrote (linked below) about the walk was entitled “Knap Hill,  Medieval Shaw, Huish and Oare in the Pewsey Downs”. A snappy little title but maybe in need of abbreviation? Just not to “Golden Balls”, despite Golden Ball Hill being on the route. You'll need to listen to the podcast or read the blog to understand the reference to Medieval Shaw. But on a day of biblical weather Paul failed to find the site of the abandoned village of Shaw, although he was convinced at the time he had found it. He's discovered it since which necessitated a re-drafting of the blog in December 2020 for fear of sending people on a wild goose chase. But fear not, the amended walk is a fine one, taking in the sites of some of Wiltshire's most ancient settlements on an escarpment that includes Neolithic Knap Hill, Mesolithic Golden Ball Hill as well as Draycott Hill, Gopher Wood and Huish Hill. Golden Ball Hill is one of the first locations where our hunter/gatherer ancestors first settled and began their long transition to farming. Finds there included three extremely rare dwellings with flint floors, post holes and hearths. Descending to Oare and Huish we find the true essence of Hidden Wiltshire encountering incredibly lifelike sculptures of deer (they had Paul fooled), a mini Avebury stone circle and a seven foot rooster. And something we forgot to mention, the grave of David Niven's ex-wife in the churchyard of St Mary's, Huish. Returning to the hills you can capture views of the remarkable Oare Pavilion, a summerhouse looking like a giant wigwam in the parkland surrounding Oare House. A place of enormous wealth and privilege. And so to the wrap up. Steve Dixon's piece in the middle leading into the discussion about the walk is entitled “Gatherings”, redolent perhaps of the ancient gathering places in these hills. After Glyn's recent appearance on BBC Radio Wiltshire, who did a short feature on our podcast, Steve is also going to appear in a feature about his music. Terrific news and well deserved. The next Hidden Wiltshire/Wiltshire Museum guided walk will be on 14 August 2021 and will be to the hills above Edington. You can get tickets using the link below.

The British government went against the recommendations of planning officials Thursday, approving controversial plans for a road tunnel to be built near the prehistoric monument of Stonehenge in southern England.The project, which is aimed at trying to ease traffic along a stretch of road widely prone to gridlock, has been touted for decades but has faced vociferous opposition from local residents as well as archaeologists.The A303 highway, which is a popular route for motorists traveling to and from the southwest of England, is often severely congested around the single-lane section of road near Stonehenge. As part of widespread improvements, a two-mile tunnel will be built that will effectively remove the sight and sound of traffic passing the site, and cut journey times.The decision by Transport Secretary Grant Shapps goes against the recommendation of the Planning Inspectorate, which warned of “permanent" and "irreversible” harm arising from the project, unseen in the site's history.However, according to the Department for Transport, Shapps was said to be “satisfied that on balance the need case for the development together with the other benefits identified outweigh any harm.”Proponents of the upgrade, which Highways England has estimated will cost 1.7 billion pounds ($2.2 billion), say it will dramatically ease congestion and eventually help the local environment. The agency expects the fieldwork to start in late spring next year, with the main five-year construction phase expected to start by 2023.“This transformational scheme will return the Stonehenge landscape towards its original setting and will improve journey times for everyone who travels to and from the southwest," the agency's chief executive, Jim O’Sullivan said.Opponents of the scheme, who have a six-week window to appeal to Britain's High Court, have for years voiced worries about the potential damage to the environment, wildlife and potential archaeological finds underground.The Stonehenge Alliance, which has campaigned against the tunnel, said it “deeply regrets” a decision that will be greeted with “shock” around the world.The group added that the plan will breach the U.K.'s international treaty obligations “not to damage” the World Heritage Site.Historian, author and broadcaster Tom Holland, who is president of the Stonehenge Alliance, said the group will oppose the “shameful” decision as vigorously as possible.“The decision to inject a great gash of tarmac and concrete into Britain’s most precious prehistoric landscape is one that ranks simultaneously as spendthrift and sacrilegious," he said.Hopes that the project wouldn't win approval were raised in June when it emerged that a team of archaeologists had discovered a ring of at least 20 large shafts within the site, a short distance from the standing stones.In a statement, the National Trust, which looks after 2,100 acres around Stonehenge, said it had a “long-standing ambition” to resolve issues relating to the A303 and that it will "now take some time to study the conclusions of the examining authority in full before responding further.”Stonehenge, which is one of the world’s most famous prehistoric monuments, was built on the flat lands of Salisbury Plain in stages, starting 5,000 years ago, with the unique stone circle erected in the late Neolithic period about 2,500 B.C.The site's meaning has been a subject of vigorous debate through the centuries, some seemingly more outlandish than others.English Heritage, a charity that manages hundreds of historic sites, notes several explanations over the centuries from Stonehenge being a coronation place for Danish kings, a Druid temple, a cult center for healing or even an astronomical computer for predicting eclipses and solar events.Nowadays, the charity said the interpretation “most generally accepted is that of a prehistoric temple aligned with the movements of the sun.”Whatever it was designed to be, Stonehenge has long captu...

99 days into the UK Lockdown and the tsunami of mixed-quality painting continues to roll on and on across seven different desks spread far and wide across the Southern half of England, and yet again this is your chance to share that experience in full stereophonic audio quality.  In this week's episode there is a vague attempt made to answer the questions posed in this exact same block of text last week but which last week's podcast failed to even mention, the many questions that the subject of badgers always throws up are debated in probably the most thorough way ever seen on any wargaming-specific podcast, the Later Ottoman army gets picked apart in both it's Serbian and non-Serbian incarnations, and Andy's Quiz returns yet again. Other topics given a 99-day airing include what the best paint schemes are for burger bars, whether Napoleon ever got irritated with the Austrians always suing for peace after he beat them, which blue is best for painting denim, what is the correct way to pronounce your own name in a Swiss bowling alley, is there a way out of existential Janissary angst, what's the correct payment-in-kind for a 3 hour truck ride across Alabama, just how big is Steve from LBMS' house, and whether Ancient British baggage now needs to include an underground bypass for your own personal 15mm A303.
