It was used not only to defend the country against its enemies but also to develop the aviation industry. It was employed as a WWI training depot, and the original field was used continuously until today for aviation. There are still three of the original hangars from that time, and it is the ideal venue for an airfield visit. It is the only licensed airfield in Wiltshire and has many modern and historical aircraft, a flight school, parachuting and micro lighting. During the opening hours, the Skies Cafe has a large choice of food, and the airfield is also home to the Boscombe Down Aviation Collection which houses numerous historical aircraft with its hangar.

A community-based project to build a working farm for the Salisbury region from the 1960s is the Bourne Community Farm River. It aims to give people the chance to learn how a farm works and to work with others to develop a sense of purpose and achievement. There is also an area for root plants like carrots, parsnips and potatoes. Volunteers can learn the planting, harvesting, cooking and preparation of the growing vegetables. The goal of the Community Farm of River Bourne is for everyone who enters to gain skills from working on the farm. Ancient and rarer races are the animals raised on the farm. The farm is not a petting farm because the animals are grown to be marketed and raised with the best quality of life available to them. The hens are maintained and sold as meat for their egg production. In your farm, you will sell the eggs. St. Peter's Church dates back to 1291, if not before. It was first under the care of Wilton's abbess and subsequently the Earls of Pembroke. It is unusual for the church that Victorian gas light is still illuminated, and the organ is powered by manual bellows, meaning somebody has to pump it in. The lighting of gas makes the church not well illuminated, especially in the winter season, but only in the summer. If you are an adrenaline seeker, Salisbury offers you a great adventure.
