Royal Artillery Museums Ltd is developing plans for the 6,000m2 Salisbury Plain Heritage Centre (SPHC) that will display military history alongside information about the local area’s ecology and archaeology.
The intention is to build the centre, designed by architect Purcell and engineer Arup, in Larkhill, facing across open Wiltshire countryside near Stonehenge.
Arup said that it would try not to scar the landscape. “We are working closely with RAML and Purcell to produce a design for the museum that will allow it to sit sympathetically in this unique site of ecological and archaeological importance,” said its project manager, Daniel Birch.
