EDITORS COMMENTS
Bole Hill 28658_052 captures the fascinating blend of history and natural beauty found in Derbyshire's Bole Hill. This aerial shot, taken by Dave MacLeod in 2015, showcases a unique perspective of this ancient site. Nestled within the picturesque landscape, we are drawn to the prominent bowl barrow that stands as a testament to the area's rich archaeological heritage. The image also reveals evidence of lead mining activities that once thrived here. The intricate network of earthworks and workings scattered across the hillside serves as a reminder of the industrious past that shaped this region. It is an intriguing juxtaposition between man-made structures and nature's enduring presence. As we gaze upon this print from Historic England, our imagination takes flight, envisioning how life must have been centuries ago when these hills were teeming with activity. We can almost hear echoes of pickaxes striking against rocks and visualize miners diligently extracting precious minerals from deep within the earth. Beyond its historical significance, Bole Hill exudes tranquility and offers breathtaking views over Derbyshire's rolling countryside. This photograph encapsulates both its cultural importance and inherent beauty—a stunning snapshot frozen in time for us to appreciate.
