Heritage Unlocked is a new English Heritage series which aims to encourage visitors to explore some of our lesser-known sites. Each book covers one region of England, and will include features on the region's history, culture and character, as well as a concise but informative entry on each site, all fully illustrated in colour. OS maps, lists of useful websites and further reading, brief histories of each county, visitor directions to each site and information on joining English Heritage are also included. In a specially designed format - small square paperbacks with flaps - these new guides will appeal to general readers, new visitors and heritage enthusiasts alike. This book describes the English Heritage sites with free access in a region which boasts some of the most beautiful scenery in the country. The history of the region is revealed in sites ranging from Neolithic burial mounds such as Belas Knap; the Roman amphitheatre at Cirencester; awe-inspiring stone circles; the timbered splendour of the medieval tithe barn at Bradford-on-Avon and Thomas Telford's exquisitely engineered bridge at Over.
