EDITORS COMMENTS
This aerial photograph captures the essence of the Binchester excavations, offering a glimpse into the rich history of County Durham's Roman fort, Vinovia. Taken by talented photographer Matthew Oakey in 2016, this print showcases the meticulous archaeology and excavation work that has been carried out at this remarkable site. The image reveals an intricate network of trenches and dig sites, meticulously arranged across the landscape like a carefully crafted puzzle. The vibrant green fields surrounding the fort provide a stark contrast to the exposed earth where centuries-old secrets lie waiting to be unearthed. Binchester Roman fort stands as a testament to England's ancient past and its enduring legacy. This print allows us to appreciate both the scale and complexity of these excavations while also highlighting their significance in understanding our cultural heritage. As we gaze upon this image, we are transported back in time, imagining what life was like within these walls during Roman occupation. It serves as a reminder that beneath our feet lies an untold story just waiting to be discovered – one that connects us with those who came before us. Matthew Oakey's expertly captured aerial perspective provides viewers with a unique vantage point from which they can marvel at both nature's beauty and humanity's quest for knowledge through archaeological exploration.
