BSD Conference
I am just contacting you to see if you know anyone who lives on the Wirral, or in Chester, or North Wales who might be going to congress if so if you could ask them if I could have a lift to congress with them and of course sharing the petrol costs.
It is much appreciated for your time with this.
Kind regards

Wiltshire Dowsers
These are the next Wiltshire Dowsers Trips. Please advise Alison on 07941 712444 (text is fine). We like to have an idea of numbers to make sure the trip is viable and can also contact you with any revised plans. The information here supersedes any previous information given. We ask for a £3 donation on all our trips.
Sunday August 21st. Windmill Hill near Avebury. Meet ON THE HILL at 11.00am.
See ‘getting there’ below. Please advise Alison if you are coming and how you intend getting there, it would be good if some could walk up together and a meeting place can be arranged.
Uneven terrain – wear stout shoes and bring suitable clothes for sun/rain etc. Bring a drink and snack. There is little shelter up there.
Dogs allowed – bring a lead. Some walking will be required.
Often the forgotten section of the Avebury Complex is usually visited by the Michael and Mary lines as they make their grand entrance to the Complex.
Windmill Hill is some way out of the centre and affords great views across Avebury. It is a classic example of a Neolithic causewayed enclosure, although much ploughed up over the years (all the more exciting for dowsing!) - there are concentric but intermittent ditches and the remains of round barrows. Large quantities of animal bones and artefacts found here suggest there were feasting and fertility rituals. The walk to get there needs to be considered part of the pilgrimage!
Getting there: Windmill Hill requires some walking to reach but please read. There are several routes (Maps: OS 173 Swindon & Devizes or OS Explorer 157 Marlborough & Savernake Forest).
From Avebury village: park as usual and use either footpaths north then west from Avebury Manor (not done this for a few years so don’t know what the paths are like, I think there are stiles), or by walking through the length of Avebury village along the footpath to Avebury Trusloe and up a farm track. The distance either way is around 1.5 miles and uphill some of the way.
From Avebury Trusloe: There is very limited kerbside parking at Avebury Trusloe, please park considerately if you do this. Pick up the path which leads up the track. Approx 1 mile uphill.
If you walk from Avebury or drive to Avebury Trusloe but cannot manage to walk up the hill, we can offer lifts to people up the track as far as cars may drive but please pre-arrange this if possible. There is no parking facility at the top of the track, just space to turn round. There is still a short uphill walk at the top – less than half a mile.
Sunday Sept 4. Belas Knap Chambered Tomb, Cotswolds.
This is a return visit to this fascinating Neolithic chambered tomb. We went there to dowse the site in Sept 2021. This time, Stone Seeker, led by Pete and Sue, have invited us along to go a little deeper. The emphasis this time will be on experiencing the effects of drumming and chanting in the different chambers.
Directions: Meet at 10am. Roadside parking in Corndean Lane, Winchcombe, Cheltenham, Glos. GL54 5AL. OS ref: SP 020261. (What3Words: remarks.cherubs.courtyard). Parking is on the Charlton Abbots and Winchcombe road in trees.
The only route up to the barrow is via a steep unmade path with tree roots under foot followed by a walk up a steep grassy field – the long barrow is along a path at the top left-hand corner of the field. It is a good half mile uphill and there is a stone stile to negotiate. Please consider this before deciding whether to come. Sensible non-slip footwear is recommended. End time: approx Noon. Please book with Pete: stoneseeker@waitrose.com
