EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the intriguing blend of history and natural beauty at Cherhill Down in Wiltshire. The image showcases a remarkable Second World War observation post, ingeniously built into an ancient Bronze Age bowl barrow mound. As if frozen in time, this aerial view unveils the seamless integration of past and present. The earthwork surrounding the observation post stands as a testament to human ingenuity throughout different eras. The carefully constructed barrow, dating back centuries before modern warfare, now serves as both a historical relic and a reminder of our ability to adapt and repurpose. Damian Grady's lens skillfully captures the essence of this unique location. The photograph reveals the panoramic landscape that surrounds Cherhill Down, showcasing its undulating hills and lush greenery. This juxtaposition between man-made structures and nature's grandeur evokes a sense of awe-inspiring harmony. As we gaze upon this image, we are transported through time - from Bronze Age civilizations to the turmoil of World War II - reminding us that history is not confined to textbooks but rather lives on within our landscapes. Damian Grady's work invites us to appreciate these hidden treasures scattered across England's countryside while contemplating their significance in shaping our collective heritage.
