EDITORS COMMENTS
This aerial print showcases the remarkable Coneys Castle Iron Age hillfort, nestled in the picturesque landscape of Dorset. Taken by talented photographer Damian Grady in 2019, this image beautifully captures the essence and grandeur of this ancient earthwork. Coneys Castle stands as a testament to the rich history and ingenuity of our ancestors. The intricate design and strategic positioning of this hillfort highlight its significance as a defensive stronghold during the Iron Age. Its commanding presence on top of a prominent hill offers breathtaking panoramic views, making it an ideal vantage point for both protection and observation. The meticulous details captured in this photograph allow us to appreciate the impressive scale and complexity of Coneys Castle's construction. The concentric rings formed by multiple ditches and banks create an awe-inspiring sight that has withstood centuries of weathering. As we gaze upon this image, we are transported back in time, imagining what life was like within these ancient walls. We can almost hear echoes from distant conversations or feel whispers carried by gentle breezes through its grassy interior. Thanks to Historic England's dedication to preserving our heritage, we can still marvel at such architectural wonders today. This print serves as a reminder that our past is not lost but rather immortalized through images like these – capturing moments frozen in time for generations to come.
