Holiday closure

The Society's library and apartments will be closed on 23 July for the staff annual outing, and from 25 July for the summer break, during which time major work will take place to replace the boiler and heating systems. For health and safety reasons there will be no access to the building during this period. The advertised date for re-opening on 8 September may be subject to change depending on completion of this work, and Fellows will be informed as soon as a re-opening date is known.

Stonehenge consultation


A three-month public consultation on the future of Stonehenge began on 17 July, seeking feedback on two important initiatives relating to this World Heritage Site: proposals for the roads near Stonehenge and options for the location of new visitor facilities. The Society will host an exhibition on the new proposals at Burlington House from 24 to 26 July, daily from 10am to 5pm; the exhibition will then transfer to Wyndham House, 65 The Close, Salisbury, and be open Monday to Friday during office hours by appointment (tel: 01722 343830) from 28 July to 17 October. Details are also on the consultation website.
