Abstract The abstract describing the content of the publication or report |
Field investigation of the Salisbury Plain Training Area by the former Royal Commission on Historical Monuments of England during the 1990s drew attention to a wide number of practice trench systems, most of which appear to date to the First World War. Recent large-scale surveys of some of these systems demonstrate the extent to which soldiers were given an elementary grounding in battle practice before being sent to the Front. They also provide evidence of how those who designed, engineered, and used such complexes, utilised natural and archaeological features in their construction. | |
