This aerial print captures the mesmerizing beauty of Woodbury Hillfort, a remarkable Iron Age univallate hillfort crop mark located in Salisbury, Wiltshire. Taken by talented photographer Damian Grady on behalf of Historic England in 2016, this image showcases the intricate earthwork and stunning landscape surrounding this ancient archaeological site. The photograph reveals the impressive scale and design of Woodbury Hillfort, showcasing its well-preserved circular shape and defensive ramparts that encircle the summit. The carefully constructed fortifications are visible as distinct lines etched into the ground, providing a glimpse into the strategic prowess of our ancestors who once inhabited these lands. As we gaze upon this image, we are transported back in time to an era where life was vastly different from our own. It serves as a powerful reminder of the rich history that lies beneath our feet and invites us to explore further into our past. Woodbury Hillfort stands as a testament to human ingenuity and resilience while offering archaeologists valuable insights into Iron Age society. Its significance cannot be overstated; it is not merely an earthwork but rather a window into an ancient world waiting to be discovered. Damian Grady's masterful composition allows us to appreciate both the grandeur of Woodbury Hillfort itself and its harmonious integration with its natural surroundings.
