EDITORS COMMENTS
This aerial view captures the mystique and ancient beauty of Barrow Cemetery in Wiltshire. The photograph, taken by Damian Grady, showcases a remarkable sight that dates back to the Bronze Age. Nestled amidst the sprawling fields, these round barrows stand as silent witnesses to a long-forgotten era. The image reveals an intricate network of earthworks that form this sacred burial ground. Each carefully constructed mound holds secrets and stories from generations past. As we gaze upon this scene, we are transported back in time, imagining the rituals and ceremonies that once took place here. Located just north of Stonehenge, Barrow Cemetery is part of a larger complex known as Fargo Plantation. Its strategic positioning suggests its significance within the landscape during ancient times. From above, one can appreciate how these mounds were intentionally arranged to create a sense of harmony with their surroundings. Damian Grady's skillful photography allows us to appreciate not only the historical importance but also the natural beauty of this site. The vast expanse of green fields stretching into the horizon creates a serene backdrop for these ancient structures. As we contemplate this print from Historic England, let us reflect on our connection to those who came before us and honor their memory through preserving such invaluable archaeological treasures like Barrow Cemetery for future generations to marvel at and learn from.
