Don Cross

We are sad to have to report that Don Cross died on September 10th. Many members will remember him for the excellent work he did for the Society between 2007 and 2013, organising Heritage Open Days. Don was a noted local figure, who founded and ran a tourist guiding company called Wessexplore. He had a wide range of interests, typified by his being a founder member of the South Wiltshire Industrial Archaeology Society. He wrote extensively, with his 2004 book ‘Salisbury – a History and Exploration’ being a fitting tribute to his contributions in the field of local history, and local tourism.
