EDITORS COMMENTS
Beneath the ethereal canopy of a North Somerset sky, the ancient Stanton Drew Circles and Cove stand proudly, defying the passage of time. Captured in this evocative image by James O. Davies for Historic England, the Neolithic and Bronze Age monuments are enshrouded in a mystical aura, their haunting silhouettes punctuating the undulating landscape. The Stanton Drew Circles, a collection of three concentric circles, are believed to date back to around 3000 BC, making them some of the oldest known monuments in England. The larger of the circles, the Great Circle, measures an impressive 110 meters in diameter, while the two smaller circles, the Inner Circle and the Outer Circle, surround it. The Cove, a series of elongated earthworks, lies nearby and is thought to date from the same period. The purpose of these prehistoric structures remains a subject of ongoing debate among archaeologists, with theories ranging from religious or ceremonial use to astronomical observatories. As the sun sets and the clouds gather, the atmosphere at Stanton Drew transforms, casting the circles in an otherworldly light. The play of shadows and the shifting moods of the sky add to the sense of mystery and wonder that has surrounded these ancient monuments for millennia. This image invites us to pause and reflect on the rich history and enduring allure of our prehistoric past. The Stanton Drew Circles and Cove serve as a reminder of the deep connections that bind us to the land and the timeless beauty of the natural world.
