Michele's 2008 UK Diary


Hello all

This is the Westbury White Horse in Wiltshire, carved in the 1600's or the 1800's into the chalk. It follows a tradition going back to prehistory, and followed by the armed forces during WWII. This one has been covered with concrete to preserve it, but it still makes an impressive sight. The hill is very steep, so it must have been a massive job to cover it!
