- Airfield Bombing Decoy (Q and K sites): DoB ID: e18662 The control bunker of a 'Q' & 'K' site bombing decoy lies within a very overgrown patch of scrub on upland NW of Pitton. The site itself no longer exists, having long since been given over to agriculture. It would have been built to protect the wartime airfield of RAF Old Sarum, and was manned by their personnel.
