EDITORS COMMENTS
This aerial photograph, captured by the talented photographer Damian Grady, showcases the remarkable Etonbury Deserted Medieval Settlement. Located near Arlesey in Bedfordshire, this hidden gem reveals itself as a mesmerizing crop mark on the landscape. As we gaze upon this intriguing image, our eyes are drawn to the intricate enclosure that once housed a thriving community. The remnants of walls and structures can still be faintly seen etched into the earth, providing us with a glimpse into a long-lost era. The deserted settlement holds an air of mystery and invites us to imagine what life was like for its inhabitants centuries ago. It sparks curiosity about their daily routines, social interactions, and how they navigated through these now-vanished streets. Through this photograph, Historic England allows us to connect with our past in a profound way. It serves as a reminder of the rich history embedded within our landscapes and encourages us to appreciate and protect these invaluable heritage sites. Grady's skilled eye has expertly captured not only the physical remains but also the intangible essence of this deserted medieval settlement. This print is more than just an image; it is an invitation to explore our collective history and honor those who came before us.
