Description ▲
The 2.750 hectare site at Porton Down in southern England was turned into a chemical and biological research facility during World War I, and the Ministry of Defense has protected it from modern agriculture. David Ride, who worked at the facility for 17 years and led the archaeology section of the Porton Down Conservation Group, explores the archaeology of the site.
