  Wiltshire - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Wiltshire is particularly well-known for its pre-Roman archaeology.
In the 6th and 7th centuries Wiltshire was at the western edge of Saxon Britain, as Cranborne Chase and the Somerset Levels prevented the advance to the west.
In the north west of the county, on the border with Gloucestershire and Bath and North East Somerset, the underlying rock is the resistant oolite limestone of the Cotswolds.

 Wiltshire Constabulary
Wiltshire Constabulary introduced professional policing services to an agricultural community in 1839.
Three years ago, a Wiltshire Constabulary study showed that police spent 47% of their time in the station, and that 24% of this time was consumed by paperwork.
The constabulary's drive to put police back on the beat and relieve their burden of paperwork coincided with a Home Office mandate to deliver 50% of services capable of being delivered electronically by 2005, such as applications and payments for permits and licenses.

 Case Study: Hardcat at Wiltshire Police
Wiltshire Constabulary takes pride in being the first County Constabulary to be established in the country - it was formed soon after the passage of the County Police Act in 1839.
The Constabulary needed to be able to demonstrate that none of their assets were going missing but without a dedicated fixed asset tracking system in place, they could not do this with 100% accuracy.
The installation of this system at the Wiltshire Constabulary has certainly been a success and the staff that use it there find it to be very effective.

A hunt saboteur today agreed to accept a settlement of £5,500 from Wiltshire Constabulary in respect of a claim for wrongful arrest and subsequent false imprisonment dating from October 2001.
Notice was issued in late December 2001 by Wiltshire Police to advise all those concerned that no further action was being taken, and it was at this stage that the saboteur decided to take up a civil case against them.
In our experience, the police generally act as the hunt or shoot's personal security force, yet when hunt saboteurs are victims of assault or criminal damage from the hunt side, they are told by the police to make a complaint at the local police station.
