Earthwork Hillfort


EDITORS COMMENTS
This aerial photograph captures the timeless allure of Leckhampton Hill, a place steeped in history and natural beauty. Taken by renowned photographer Jim Hancock in 1971, this print offers a glimpse into the past, showcasing the remarkable Univallate Iron Age hillfort that once stood proudly on this very spot. Leckhampton Hill, located in Cheltenham, Gloucestershire, has long been an area of great significance. The earthwork visible in the photo represents the remains of an ancient fortification dating back to prehistoric times. Its strategic position atop the hill provided its inhabitants with commanding views over the surrounding landscape. As we gaze upon this image, our imagination is transported back to a time when tribes sought refuge within these protective walls. We can almost envision their daily lives unfolding amidst these rugged terrains - cooking fires crackling, children playing amongst grassy slopes, and sentries keeping watch from wooden towers. Beyond its historical importance lies Leckhampton Hill's undeniable natural charm. Rolling hills adorned with lush greenery stretch as far as the eye can see. The tranquility captured here invites us to explore every nook and cranny of this enchanting landscape. Jim Hancock's masterful composition not only showcases his artistic prowess but also pays homage to England's rich heritage. This extraordinary photograph serves as a reminder that beneath our modern world lie layers upon layers of stories waiting to be discovered and cherished for generations to come.
