The Devizes Millennium White Horse is one of the most recent chalk figures cut in the UK, created in 1999. It sits up on an escarpment on Roundway Hill just north of Devizes and it's easily accessible by multiple footpaths and bridleways. You can view the horse from the south as well as from neighbouring Milk Hill. It's one of many past and present chalk horses on Wiltshire's hills.
