EDITORS COMMENTS
This aerial photograph, captured by the talented photographer Damian Grady, showcases a remarkable sight that takes us back in time. The image features Soilmark barrow 29345_035, located in West Overton, Wiltshire. Standing as a testament to ancient civilizations and their burial practices, this round barrow emerges as a soilmark amidst the freshly ploughed field. The scene is filled with intriguing elements that transport us to another era. The ruins of this prehistoric structure are beautifully highlighted against the backdrop of the ploughed field. It's fascinating to witness how nature and human intervention intertwine here; the tractor diligently ploughing the land serves as a stark contrast to the age-old remnants it uncovers. As we gaze upon this print from Historic England, our imagination runs wild with thoughts of Bronze Age communities who once inhabited these lands. We ponder over their beliefs and rituals surrounding death and wonder about their way of life during those distant times. Damian Grady's skillful composition allows us to appreciate both the historical significance and aesthetic beauty found within this image. It serves as a reminder that beneath our modern landscapes lie hidden stories waiting to be discovered – tales of forgotten civilizations etched into every inch of soil. Let this photograph inspire you to delve deeper into history's mysteries and ignite your curiosity about our shared pasts.
