EDITORS COMMENTS
1. Old Sarum: A Historic Hillfort and Ancient City in Wiltshire, England Old Sarum, located in the county of Wiltshire, England, is an ancient and historic site that offers a fascinating glimpse into the rich past of the British Isles. This aerial photograph, taken by Roger Featherstone for Historic England, captures the essence of Old Sarum's complex and intriguing history. At the heart of the image lies the impressive earthworks of Old Sarum, a prehistoric hillfort that dates back to around 3000 BC. The circular outline of the fortification, with its distinct ditches and banks, can be clearly seen, providing evidence of the defensive structures that once protected its inhabitants from invaders. Surrounding the hillfort are expanses of open fields, which have been farmed for centuries. The undulating landscape, dotted with trees and hedgerows, bears testament to the passage of time and the changing seasons. At the northern edge of the site, the ruins of Old Sarum Castle and Salisbury Cathedral come into view. Founded in the 11th century, Old Sarum Castle was once a royal fortress and the site of the earliest settlement in the area. The nearby Salisbury Cathedral, with its iconic spire, was built in the 13th century and remains an enduring symbol of the region's architectural heritage. The aerial perspective of Old Sarum offers a unique and captivating view of this historic site, revealing the intricate relationships between the prehistoric hillfort, the medieval castle, and the surrounding landscape. This image invites us to explore the stories and secrets that lie hidden within the earthworks and stones, and to appreciate the enduring legacy of Old Sarum as a testament to the rich and complex history of England.
