Archaeologists Were Clearing Old Army Ground When They Uncovered This Huge Hidden Battlefield

Most people picture Salisbury Plain in England as a land of ancient stones, but a discovery near a military base has pulled the story into a much more recent century. Workers clearing land at Larkhill camp for new housing uncovered a hidden network of underground tunnels. According to the video, these passages were not ancient at all, but were built during the First World War. The find raises a curious question: what was it really like to train down there, and what did the men leave behind? Press play to explore a forgotten corner of wartime history.
