EDITORS COMMENTS
This aerial photo print, titled "Bewick Hill 34015_016" captures the essence of history and natural beauty intertwined in one frame. Taken by the talented photographer Emma Trevarthen, this image showcases Bewick Hill, located in Old Bewick, Northumberland. The hillfort's rich heritage dates back to the Iron Age, where it served as a multivallate stronghold for ancient communities. The earthworks that encircle the hillfort are a testament to its strategic importance throughout history. As we gaze upon this photograph, we can't help but marvel at how these ancient fortifications have withstood the test of time. Nestled within this historical landscape are Second World War pillboxes - remnants of a more recent conflict that add another layer of intrigue to this already fascinating site. Emma Trevarthen's expertly captured aerial perspective allows us to appreciate both the grandeur and intricacy of Bewick Hill from an entirely new vantage point. The lush greenery surrounding the hillfort creates a stark contrast against its weathered stone walls and earthen mounds. As we immerse ourselves in this image, we are transported back through centuries of human history while simultaneously being reminded of nature's resilience. This print is not just a visual delight; it serves as a poignant reminder that our present is built upon layers upon layers of past experiences and stories waiting to be discovered.
