Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Salisbury Plain: Its Stones Cathedral City Villages and Folk
Besides depending upon the classic authority of Sir Richard Colt Hoare, and the topographical and biographical writings of our earlier Wiltshire antiquary, the only and incom parable John Aubrey, I have drawn freely for informa tion upon the Magazine of the Wiltshire Archaeological Society, and upon Wiltshire Notes and Qieries. I am especially indebted to Mr C. E. Pouting's Notes in the former upon the churches in this neighbourhood, and to Mr J. U. Powell's upon the history and folk-lore of South West Wilts both in the Wilts. Arab. Mag. And in the Journal of the folk-lore Society. On Salisbury and the Cathedral there are many books; among the more recent writings on special points I may mention those of the Rev. C. Wordsworth, Mr Malden, and Mr C. Haskins.
