Wednesday June 1st 2010 was the 25th anniversary of the Battle of the Beanfield. For those who are unaware of this dark day for British justice and civil liberties, the Battle of the Beanfield took place after a convoy of 140 travellers’ vehicles, containing around 450 men, women and children – including travellers, peace protestors, green activists and festival-goers – had set off from Savernake Forest in Wiltshire in an attempt to establish the 12th annual free festival at Stonehenge.

Andy Worthington writes: They never reached their destination. Eight miles from the Stones they were ambushed, assaulted and arrested with unprecedented brutality by a quasi-military police force of over 1,300 officers drawn from six counties and the MoD. The Stonehenge festival came to an end, and the travellers’ entire way of life was now under threat as the state prepared to introduce new legislation that would aid them in their mission to ‘decommission’ the travellers’ movement and the free festival circuit that sustained it.

Also available is a full-length book about the subject: 'The Battle of the Beanfield'. Edited by Andy Worthington, with photos and contributions by Alan Lodge, Tim Malyon, Neil Goodwin, Gareth Morris, Alan Dearling and others, the book will be published in time for the summer solstice.

'The Battle of the Beanfield' features in-depth interviews with a range of people who were there on the day, including travellers, journalists, landowners and the police, extracts from the police radio log, a hundred photos (including many which have rarely been seen before), chapters on the 1991 Beanfield trial, a description of the making of the documentary ‘Operation Solstice’, and chapters which set the events of the Beanfield in context. These look at the evolution of the free festival scene, new travellers, convoys and peace protestors, ‘raves’ and road protests, the campaigns for access to Stonehenge, and the wider implications of the events of the Beanfield, through increasingly draconian legislation, on civil liberties in the UK.

Andy Worthington is the author of Stonehenge: Celebration and Subversion, available from the Megalithic Portal shop, and described by John Hodge of SchNEWS as ‘by far the best bit of modern British social history I’ve seen.’

Re: Police looking for you - to apologise! by Anonymous on Sunday, 14 November 2010
Andy Worthington, thank you for a great book what really happened on that day was shameful and should never be forgotten.

For those of you that were not there and think you can comment on the Hippies, well all I can say is I hope your government wherever they are never condone what happened in that field on that day to peaceful citizens.

Every police person that took part in that dreadful onslaught were like mindless puppets doing the work of their masters.

A dark day in British history indeed

In some ways things have got better, in other ways they haven't

Tens of thousands of people have been stopped in the street and searched unlawfully under controversial section 44 anti-terrorism powers, the Home Office has revealed.

Fourteen police forces are urgently trying to find the individuals involved so they can apologise to them... (!)

Terrorism Act 2000 ... powers were used to stop 148,798 people last year and have been used repeatedly against peace protesters and photographers.

Some unedited footage of the day can be seen from about 3 minutes in to this youtube video.



Donald Smith, then Chief Constable of Wiltshire Council Constabulary said in a Newsnight interview ,

“There’s two sides to every story....It’s always easy for any person, whether he be a policeman, a television interviewer, anyone, to say the police over reacted on that day. You’ve got to be there before you make a proper judgement in my view.”

    Thanks for posting this Andy. Actual evidence rather than misinformed heresay and class bigotry. I have spoken to about 20 people that were in the field on that day and they all have unbelieveable things to tell. I don't want to live in a world that has no place for hippies.

Apologies we didn't spot these previously. Unfortunately they have 'bean' and gone apart from this one.

Exeter, Tuesday June 1 to Saturday June 19: “Beanfield,” a new play by Shaun McCarthy at The Bike Shed Theatre, St Olaves Close, Mary Archers Street, Exeter, EX4 3AT.

Beanfield has been written to highlight an often-forgotten event that occured twenty-five years ago in the South West. On the 1st June 1985, a convoy of several hundred new-age travellers was attacked by riot police as they made their way to Stonehenge for the 14th annual Stonehenge free festival. Vehicles were destroyed, dogs put down and many people were seriously wounded as police pursued those attempting to escape across the Beanfield.

Seen through the lense of a love story between Steamer, a veteran of the convoy, and Annie, the well-to-do daughter of a newspaper editor, and taking in an array of characters from policemen to English Heritage committee members, Beanfield tells an epic story with a lightness of touch.

I think that the annual events by you people damage the stones and the area themselves!
All you do is drink booze, smoke dope and crack. How spiritual is that? That area is a national treasue, and you are ruining it with your yearly 'party'.
That was why they tried to close the place to you lot back in 85!
Oh, and Andy Worthington, you clearly cannot argue your point without insulting the person who you are replying to. That American chap, Lionsfan, had some very good points and you refused to answer them. Instead you just ridiculed him.
Grow up mate. I hope you sell more than 10 copies of your book, but I doubt it!

    There is one part of the Battle of the Beanfield I will remember to my grave. The police were attempting to arrest a young woman sitting at the front of a coach. Other coaches were being brought to a halt by the police tactics of hurling anything they could get their hands on - shields, truncheon, rocks, at least one small steel fire extinguisher - at the windscreens as they drove past.

    As this one went past, the woman stood up for all to see and held up a tiny baby.

    No sooner had she finished crying out that she had a baby with her, then one of the police man at the back of the melee slung a large stone at the front of that windscreen, which shattered into a thousand pieces, covering mother and baby.

    He presumably had not heard or seen what we all had.

    My own daughter had been born just a couple of months earlier and it was many years later before I could tell that story without having to stop half way through.

    In the end, myself and my neighbour, John Moore, ended up being the only witnesses who were in the Beanfield for the whole event, but were not involved in the battle.

    We went down on our motorcycles as I had inadvertently become involved the night before when part of the convoy broke in and illegally camped at my estate in Savernake Forest.

    We were tagging along with the convoy near the A303 when, in a narrow little lane, the front vehicle stopped at a police barricade.

    And though we were close to the front, we did not know this at the time, the back of the convoy had also been blocked off simultaneously, so this very long line of vehicles and 350 or so occupants were now effectively trapped . . .

    AFTER a long impasse, the leading vehicle suddenly started its engine . . . and drove straight through the hedge into a field of beans beyond. It was immediately followed by others.

    At that the police came rushing out from behind their barricades.

    John and I were still wearing our motorcycle helmets, and, trying very hard not to look like members of the convoy, we unzipped our motorcycle jackets, revealing a collar and tie underneath.

    We watched as the police ran along the line of vehicles. Clutching truncheons and riot shields, they ran round to the driver's door of each vehicle, repeatedly slamming their truncheons into the bodywork to make a deafening noise, and shouting at every driver: "Get out! Get out!

    Hand over your keys! Get out!" That had the desired effect on some drivers, but any driver who took more that a few second to comply immediately had their windscreens smashed.

    Right in front of where John and I were standing anonymously, there was a converted ambulance, with a lone blonde girl of about 20 at the wheel. A policeman ran round to her large ambulance windscreen and smashed twice at it with his truncheon. To his amazement and horror, he found those windscreens are made of specially toughened material and his heavy blows just bounced off.

    At that point one of his colleagues went round to the side window and with a couple of blows managed to shatter that glass.

    HE then reached inside, and was able to grab a handful of this young girl's long blonde hair. He started to try and pull her out of that broken window, over the shattered glass.

    As he pulled her hair, some of his colleagues who had got into the ambulance through the rear door had grabbed some other part of this young woman.

    There were then 10 ghastly seconds when she was the "rope" in some gruesome tug-of-war.

    Then came a stand-off, which lasted several hours, with the police massed on the road, and the convoy camped out in the field.

    The drivers would occasionally hurl insults at the police and, as the afternoon wore on, this changed into stones, and some sticks and branches. . .

    In late afternoon the police finally decided the ti

Re: The Battle of the Beanfield by Anonymous on Tuesday, 21 June 2005
A rather amusing, biased post there from Mr. Worthington. I did indeed chuckle to myself! So incredibly anti-police it's laudable! They could have showered you with roses and you would have reported to the world they hearld fireballs at you.
So, these travellers decide to ahve their 12th annual free festival at stonehenge. Great. However, they knew it was closed, that they wouldn't be allowed access. However they persisted to attend, clearly thinking they could break there way onto the said grounds of stonehenge. Fortunately the Police were on hand to prevent them from doing so. I'm sure the travellers expected only a few policemen to be in attendance around the site, and they wouldn't take much to get past. How suprised they must have been when they saw the Police had seen their plans. Either this or they must have known that many police would have been present and went to cause trouble anyway!
Anyway, this convoy of motors smash their way into a field to try and get past the police cordon (they clearly cared oh-so-much about their children when driving like idiots) and out onto the beanfield.
Once again the police were not fooled and these idiots were stopped, and dealt with.
Bravo to a well planned, and executed police response.
Shame all the "evidence" of the supposed beatings and police causing damage was "lost" by the likes of several fairly left wing reporters at the scene! You shout at the state for censorship when your own kind do exactly that!

    I can not believe how utterly stupid your comments are. I personally do not believe that there is ever any excuse to beat pregnant women, no matter who they are or whatever they have done. To condone such actions purely serves to illustrate the extent of your blind bigotry. You excuse such actions by insisting that the travellers were simply out to cause trouble…*sigh*…how ill-informed you are. Only two types of people attack innocent people: cowards and bullies – which are you?

This is a reply to ‘LionsFan’ – though normally I don’t bother to reply to ignorant critics who hide behind pseudonyms. My name’s Andy Worthington, and I’m proud of it.

First off, I didn’t call the Beanfield ‘the most brutal police operation in the history of the UK’, so you might want to check who you’re accusing of what before you start denigrating my comments. I’m well aware that there have been plenty of other incidents of police brutality in recent British history, including some that you mention, but I stand by my comment that the ‘convoy’ attacked on June 1st 1985 was attacked with ‘unprecedented brutality’. These were unarmed civilians, who, as well as including in their number the ‘hippies’ you so clearly despise, also comprised peace protestors (Green Party members, CND members), many of whom had recently been protesting against plans to locate Cruise missiles on British soil at Molesworth airbase in Cambridgeshire. But then you probably think that anti-war protestors deserve all the beatings the police can dish out too.

While I’m sure you’re wonderfully knowledgeable about American history, you don’t seem to know much about ours. I wonder if you know, for example, anything about the laws that followed the Beanfield (first in 1986, and then in 1994), which gradually criminalized the entire way of life of new travellers and Gypsies (and you might want to note that in British law gypsies are defined as ‘persons of nomadic habit of life, whatever their race or origin’). I wonder if you know that the laws that followed the Beanfield suppressed the quaint tradition in British law of a right of assembly without prior state permission by introducing legislation whereby the police are able to ban groups of 20 or more people meeting in a particular area if they fear ‘serious disruption to the life of the community’, even if the meeting is non-obstructive and non-violent. I could go on, but I expect that some of the audience, here at least, might understand something about the importance of civil liberties, and the ways in which the Beanfield provided a crucial precedent for undermining them.

Another thing that you seem to be confused about is the situation at Stonehenge on the summer solstice now – when between 20,000 and 30,000 people gather at the Stones, many of whom have no knowledge of the site’s significance – compared to that which was in place 20 years ago, when a few thousand of the festival-goers ventured across the road to hold their ceremonies in the Stones. As one of the custodians explained to the journalist Tim Malyon, shortly after the Beanfield, ‘The ‘hippies’ have never done any damage to the Stones over the six-year period I’ve been on duty at Stonehenge. They are respected by the custodians. They come with black bags and collect up all the rubbish when they leave, even the cigarette ends’. 21 years ago, most of the 20,000 to 30,000 people stayed in the festival field across the road, where, contrary to certain sources of misinformation, there was little of archaeological value, after the continuing depredations of 19th century antiquarians, the military and arable farmers. And now, ironically, after all the expense and the grotesque overreaction of the exclusion zone, today’s equivalents, most of whom have not had anything of the education in communal responsibility that was part of the pre-Beanfield world, are all at the Stones instead. No doubt you have some wonderful suggestions about what could be done with all these people, but perhaps you’d do me a favour and keep them to yourself. There’s an interesting process going on here, and it involves many people’s differing ideas about rights and responsibilities, and ways of creating dialogue, rather than pronouncements from afar from someone who clearly regards as a museum what many other people see as somewhere that is ‘alive’, and who may have many reasons for believing that it has a significance that combines the spiritual, the

    I had been to the 3 preceding years Henge festival but was unable to go to the 1985 showdown (even though we had heard all about what it was going to be like with the police OVERKILL etc) no, I was a teenager stuck living in a squat then, the result of Thatchers' scrapping of housing benefit for lodgers between ages 16-24 after six weeks in any one town. Sound familiar? Deja-vu? It was an ideological attack then it is now, make no mistake.

I'm American. So naturally my view of these matters is colored by cultural associations. But if the posters above and "Andy" truly believe that this was the "most brutal police operation in the history of the Uk," my basic advice to all of you is, grow up. You've had race riots places like Brixton and Bradford, and you think this was "brutal?" Worse, you seem to think your behavior was fine by contrast.

Stonehenge may indeed belong to "everyone," but of everyone who visits, few evince any basic interest in keeping it clean and well-maintained. So the state stepped in and charged admission. Long ago.

Then came the hippies (and, I'd bet, later on what we used to term "beer hippies" over here, although we're being kind here). But "you guys" simply don't have the right to assert, however vaguely, half-formed notions of hippie-*****-traveller "culture over a bona-fide national treasure. Not even on, especially not on, the summer solstice. If you want to dance, beat (badly) on drums and dance while swirling scarves and smoking pot, fine, go do it somewhere else. Too much vandalism has been done already to archaeological sites, both in the US and elsewhere, in the name of "cultural gatherings" of this nature. Hippies, travellers (do you mean "Gypsies," by the way? here they're more likely to sell homeowners bad car or roof repairs than travel), whatever you call yourselves , your gathering of the tribes should never take precedence over the need for preservation of sites, so that all the rest of us can also enjoy them. Face it, too, large portable groupings of drug dealers and abusers are going to be a target everywhere. Maybe you shoul all just hang back and wait for the next international tour by whatever the successor band to the Grateful Dead is now called.

And I've read nothing in the accounts above or on Andy's web site that smacks convincingly of police overreaction, and believe you me, as an American I know a bit about that topic. There was some jostling, basically. But don't exaggerate for effect here, it doesn't work. I've also learned something else from the past, that any group with the name "People's" in it (as in the People's Free Festival of Albion) almost always has nothing to do with "the people" in general and much to do with one small, conceited interest group or another.

    Have our Lionsfan not seen the video clips of people being smashed over the heads with truncheons, being dragged across the fields by their hair & having their HOMES smashed in front of their children and partners? And for what? Exercising a freedom this country is supposed to be proud of? I think if he was there at the time he might have a better idea of the brutal reality of what it was like, evidently he was not and clearly knows little about the actual atrocities committed by the authorities that day.

The Battle of the Beanfield by Anonymous on Saturday, 04 June 2005
NickFitz writes: it is just over twenty years since the
Battle of the Beanfield, perhaps the most brutal police operation in
the history of the United Kingdom. On 1 June 1985 police from six
counties attacked a convoy of men, women and children who were
making their way to Stonehenge. Half an hour later, 420 people had
been beaten and arrested and up to 140 vehicles seized.

There are many things to be disgruntled - and even seriously bloody
angry - about in the state of the United Kingdom today. Nonetheless
it has to be admitted that things ain't what they used to be: 1985
was a time of three million unemployed (official figures, real
figures something over six million), wretchedly run-down council
estates rife with drugs and crime, and a Prime Minister who
explicitly stated that there was no such thing as society. The
message of the Government was unequivocal: you lot are on your own.

This was how the Peace Convoy had come into being - or rather, how
it came into being every year. It comprised an assortment of people
who had chosen to go on the road as a way of life, travelling
between festivals through the summer making a living by supplying
the wants of the weekend crowds, from vegeburgers to hash. In the
winter, some would return to their urban lives, while others would
do agricultural work to tide them over. The Peace Convoy didn't
exist in the sense of being an organisation; it was an amorphous,
distributed anarchistic community, a term applied to any gathering
of old coaches and lorries converted into mobile homes by people
sick of life in the devastated inner cities of Thatcher's Britain.

The term Peace Convoy was primarily promoted by the Press, who
depicted its "members" as a drug-crazed menace to all the cows that
were sacred, mainly because a number of people matching their
description were to be found at the various Peace Camps that kept
the security people on their toes at nuclear weapons bases
throughout the country. Apparently, even when society doesn't exist,
it is still possible to be a menace to it.

The People's Free Festival of Albion had been held at Stonehenge
every year since 1974 (or 1972 according to some sources) .
Traditionally, the Peace Convoy would come together and travel to
the large fields over the road from the stones at the start of June,
establishing a festival which lasted until the end of the month,
peaking at the Summer Solstice sunrise celebration. In 1984 official
estimates put the number attending at about 30,000; in the way of
these things, those who were there claim that the figure was nearer
50,000. Whatever the truth, the Stonehenge Free Festival was the
major counter-cultural event of the year, marking the start of the
festival season. From the end of June it was possible to travel to a
different free festival every weekend for the entire summer. Often
there was a choice of several.

A large subculture, able to prove to its own satisfaction that an
anarchic way of life was a major improvement on the nightmare of
subsisting at the bottom of the capitalist heap, was never going to
be welcome to the powers that be. In 1985 it was declared that no
festival would be allowed; the Association of Chief Police Officers
obtained a blanket injunction and the stage was set.

The trouble was, none of us believed them. If all those people went
to Stonehenge simultaneously, how could they possibly stop them? The
answer should have been clear from the brutal suppression of dissent
during the Miners' Strike. Margaret Thatcher had greatly increased
police salaries immediately she came to power; now we were finding <
