The attention of the Committee has been called during the year, amongst other things, to the proposed cleaning and scraping of the Market Cross at Salisbury, and to the injury being done to the fine long barrow at Winterbourne Stoke cross roads [Map]. The Salisbury Town Council yielded to the representations made by our Society and by the Society of Antiquaries, and has decided not to scrape the stonework of the Market Cross. The Secretary lost no time in interceding for the preservation of one of the finest of the long barrows, and it is hoped that further damage to it is averted.
