Devizes White Horse: The Devizes White Horse (also known as the Devizes Millennium White Horse), is a hill figure of a horse located on Bank Field, an escarpment at Roundway Hill, on the outskirts of the town Devizes in the village of Roundway, Wiltshire, England. The Devizes White Horse has been the location of many crop circles over the years.  Its location is about 1 km north of Roundway. It was cut in 1999 to celebrate the forthcoming third millennium , and is based on a design of another white horse hill figure, which was also known as the Devizes White Horse, or sometimes The Snobs Horse, which was very nearby to the present horse as it was located on Roundway Hill beneath the Oliver’s Castle hill fort. Traces of the Snobs Horse can still be seen under the right conditions. The Devizes White Horse is the eighth and latest major white horse hill figure cut in Wiltshire to be seen today.
