Abstract:		 In 2011 a collaborative research project between English Heritage and Ordnance Survey was undertaken to help inform the restoration of the George III chalk-cut hill-figure, more generally known as the Osmington White Horse. Although a relatively recent creation (first cut in 1808) little was known about its origins or the changes made to it through time. This prominent Scheduled Monument had suffered extensive erosion and disfigurement which had obscured its original shape and led to its inclusion on the Heritage at Risk register. The objective of the project - to establish the history of the figure and the most appropriate outline for reinstatement - was prompted by a request for assistance from the Osmington Society, who were actively promoting restoration of this local landmark in partnership with English Heritage, Natural England, Dorset County Council and the local landowners. Following restoration the monument was it officially unveiled by HRH The Princess Royal in the summer of 2012.
