UPDATE 5 October
The barriers have been removed and the road has now been re-opened.
Original News article 23 September
Wiltshire Council will be closing the A360 from Camp Hill to Stoford Bush crossroads
for carriageway resurfacing, road markings, adjustment of ironworks and associated work from 30 September to
5 October.
A Diversion via A303 and A345 will be signed for all vehicles - no through route for emergency vehicles will be possible.
The road had previously been closed from March 2024 until August 2024 for high voltage cables to be laid to supply electricity for the now-cancelled A303 Stonehenge Tunnel.
Why is the area called 'Camp Hill'? The Royal Regiment of Dragoons was based there in the mid-18th century.
"There would have been hundreds of men and horses and all their equipment.
Their Colonel was Lieutenant General Henry Hawley who was also Governor of Portsmouth. He died in 1759. The camp was conveniently sited because down the other side (west) of the hill was Wilton House. Henry (10th) Earl of Pembroke was the Army’s authority on cavalry training for horses and men. In 1755 he had built an indoor riding school at Wilton House. He later became the Regiment’s Colonel for thirty years (1764-1794)."
