Sure to be a wonderfully fascinating and thought-provoking read. Looking forward to it.
And having been to Stonehenge and Newgrange in the past year, I'm hoping to also be ahead in the 'amazing places to visit' list!! 😀

Having read the Observer’s article it was interesting to see Paul’s video which tells a fascinating tale of #RomanHistory and #AncientBritain
The amount of work he puts in to his content is a joy to see, so if you’re not already a YouTube subscriber I think you should head over to his channel.

A curving ditch filled with green grass and purple-brown heather, on the inside rises at least 6 large standing stones. In the distance are low hills and a blue sky
The Ring of Brodgar in Orkney, #Scotland, built c.2500 BC
This ditch alone took at least 80,00 hours to dig, straight into the bedrock!
At 380m in circumference, that's a serious community effort!
