Abstract

After the death of General Pitt-Rivers’s grandson, Captain George Pitt-Rivers, in 1966, the collections housed at the Pitt-Rivers Museum, Farnham, were closed to the public and threatened with being dispersed. In this article I discuss the transfer of the Pitt-Rivers Collection to Salisbury Museum and its later history there, including current plans to redisplay parts of it in a new Wessex Gallery.
