YOUNG film-makers from the Salisbury area are set to be part of a documentary film crew recording an archaeological dig on Salisbury Plain.

The venture is named Project Florence to match up with the army’s excavation codename of Operation Nightingale and will result in a 25 minute film to be premiered on the big screen at Salisbury Arts Centre in November.

The project is a team effort between the Arts Centre, Wessex Archaeology and the army, supported by a grant from the Heritage Lottery Fund.

Excavations will be centred around a 4,000-year-old Bronze Age burial site on military land on Salisbury Plain.
