A handout photo made available by the British Ministry of Defence showing restoration work that was carried out on the Bulford Kiwi, chalk monument, on Beacon Hill,, Bulford, Salisbury Plain, west England, 29 June 2018, (issued 02 July 2018). The historic chalk monument on Salisbury Plain has been restored by Defence Infrastructure Organisation (DIO) along with partners Landmarc Support Services (Landmarc), the Army, the New Zealand High Commission and local volunteers to restore the “Bulford Kiwi”, which was created in 1919 by soldiers from New Zealand at the end of World War I as they awaited their return home. The figure has recently become a scheduled monument, which means it is recognised as a nationally important archaeological site and it is now protected from destruction or change.
