EDITORS COMMENTS
Nestled in the rolling hills of Westdean, Sussex, England, lies a little-known white horse, carved high upon the hillside. This ancient figure, a relic of the past, is a testament to the rich history and heritage of this beautiful countryside. The Westdean White Horse, as it is known, is a fascinating archaeological discovery, believed to date back to the 1950s. The horse, cut out of the chalky hillside, is not easily visible, making it a hidden gem for those who seek it out. The rugged terrain and steep incline add to the mystery and allure of this enigmatic figure. Legend has it that King Alfred the Great, one of England's most renowned monarchs, met Asser the Monk at this very spot. Asser, an Irish monk, played a significant role in Alfred's education and the spread of Christianity in England. The exact details of their meeting are lost to history, but the connection adds an intriguing layer of history to this already captivating site. The woman in this photograph, dressed in a simple yet elegant dress, adds a sense of scale and human connection to the image. She stands before the horse, her expression a mixture of awe and wonder, as she takes in the breathtaking view of the Sussex countryside spread out before her. The Westdean White Horse is a reminder of the past, a symbol of the enduring beauty of the English countryside, and a testament to the rich history that lies hidden in the most unexpected places.
