The Day Silbury Hill Collapsed
Paul Whitewick
@pwhitewickAbout
Hello and welcome. I'm Paul Whitewick, I seem to have developed a passion for making short films about the Landscape here in Britain. My passion for abandoned Railways and Canals soon spilled over into Roman Roads, ancient trackways and countless stories I can tell as I walk the Landscape. I have a degree in Environmental Science, but thats about it, other than a pair of decent walking shoes! I am a wannabee archaeologist who loves telling the stories I learn about week on week. So if thats your thing, click subscribe and I'll see you in the next video.

Huge thanks to Amanda Chadburn, Jill Chapman, Alex Bayliss and Jim Leary for inspiration on this weeks video. This is a great start if you like a read: https://www.amazon.co.uk/Story-Silbury-Hill-Jim-Leary/dp/1848020465 Join this channel to get access to perks: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCJV1EC8Mf87PpQYo9eUfd3Q/join OR https://www.patreon.com/PaulandRebeccaWhitewick Usual notices: 1. We are not historians. We enjoy researching and learning, and with that we enjoy sharing our journeys with you. That said, sources for information often listed below with credits. 2. Errors. Whilst we make every attempt to not include any errors, research, and piecing stories together from dozens of sources sometimes leads to one or two. I will note here if any are found: A: Merewether is pronounced "Merri-whether", unlike my attempt! B: Edward Drax AND The Duke of Northumberland undertook the dig in 1776. As suggested by directing miners to sink a shaft. C: 2400 BC not 20400BC! D. My biggest frustration was not discussing the likely totem down the middle. More on this another day soon.
