The view to the north
Yesterday's photo of Hambledon Hill featured the southern slopes flic.kr/p/2nCF8pp. A double-header of posts this weekend is completed by this view looking north from the hill fort. To anyone who knows the area, Shaftesbury is situated along the flat horizon to the right of the photo as you are looking at the screen.
Scale is given to this enormous Iron Age hill fort by a person with white clothing coming into view along the lowest of the tracks along the hill side.
A modern twist to almost 5000 years of history is the solar farm to the middle right of the photo!
