EDITORS COMMENTS
1. Title: Bratton Camp and White Horse - A Timeless Symphony of History and Nature 2. Nestled in the tranquil countryside of Westbury, Wiltshire, lies an intriguing fusion of history and nature - Bratton Camp and the Westbury White Horse. This evocative scene, captured in an aerial photograph by Damian Grady for Historic England, invites us to explore the depths of our past and the beauty of the natural world. 3. At the heart of the image, the ancient Iron Age hill fort, Bratton Camp, stands proudly. Its earthen ramparts and ditches encircle a much earlier long barrow, a testament to the rich heritage that stretches back thousands of years. The fortification, believed to have been occupied from around 400 BC to AD 43, offers a glimpse into the lives of our ancestors and their defensive strategies. 4. Beneath the protective embrace of Bratton Camp lies the iconic Westbury White Horse. Carved into the hillside in 1778, this majestic figure replaced an older horse, possibly commemorating King Alfred's nearby victory over the Vikings in AD 878. The horse, with its flowing mane and tail, is a symbol of local pride and a reminder of the area's rich historical tapestry. 5. The rural landscape surrounding Bratton Camp and the White Horse is a breathtaking canvas of rolling hills, verdant fields, and quaint stone walls. The aerial perspective offers a unique vantage point, allowing us to fully appreciate the harmony between the man-made fortifications and the natural beauty of the land. 6. This image, a masterpiece in its own right, invites us to reflect on the enduring legacy of our past and the importance of preserving it for future generations. The story of Bratton Camp and the Westbury White Horse is a testament to the power of history and the beauty of the natural world, intertwined in a timeless dance.
