EDITORS COMMENTS
This aerial photograph, taken by Damian Grady, showcases the mesmerizing beauty of Ugborough Moor in Devon. The image captures a sub-circular enclosed settlement earthwork and a hut circle earthwork, both remnants of prehistoric times. As we gaze upon this ancient landscape from above, we are transported back in time to an era long gone. The intricate details of the earthworks reveal the remarkable craftsmanship and ingenuity of our ancestors. It is awe-inspiring to think about how these structures were meticulously constructed without modern tools or machinery. The sub-circular enclosed settlement stands as a testament to human habitation on this moorland centuries ago. Its purpose remains shrouded in mystery, leaving us with countless questions about the lives led within its protective walls. Adjacent to it lies a well-preserved hut circle earthwork, providing further insight into the daily existence of those who once called this place home. These circular dwellings offer glimpses into their domestic life and provide valuable clues for archaeologists studying our past. Damian Grady's expertly captured photograph not only serves as a visual feast for our eyes but also invites us to ponder the rich history that lies beneath our feet. It reminds us that even amidst modernity, there are hidden stories waiting to be discovered and cherished from times long forgotten.
