Hillfort exploring at Badbury Rings in Dorset. The site was first settled around 6000 years ago, with the Iron Age hillfort constructed in two main phases. A Roman era temple was also constructed on the site, demonstrating its local importance #badburyrings #hillfort #ironage

This just arrived on my doorstep with a big ‘thud’! Looking forward to reading it when I get a chance. Especially love the lino print image of Tap o’Noth #hillfort on the jacket cover by Bryan Angus. 🙌

Traprain Law. The image shows the view across a cereal field to the rocky and grassy mount of Traprain Law. There's the start of a stone wall and a tree on the left of the frame in the foreground. The scene is mainly in sunlight, with some clouds in the sky.
Traprain Law, a whaleback volcanic lump rising to 724ft in East Lothian. It was occupied from the Bronze Age and is said to have been home to King Loth of the Gododdin, who gave Lothian its name. More pics and info: www.undiscoveredscot...

Aerial view: Old Sarum, Wiltshire. Iron Age hillfort reused by Romans, then crowned with a Norman castle and the first Salisbury Cathedral. 2,000 years of power, faith and defence in one perfect circle. #OldSarum #Salisbury #aerial #image #HillFort

Plus, we still got some great views out of it, even if it was very windy and cold up at the top.

The city was establised on the eastern bank of the Severn, overlooked by the Wrekin in the area of the Cornovii
Its unclear whether the first encounters with the tribe were violent or comparitively peaceful, either way the Romans built temporary forts on either side of the river.

Photo of a green-grass covered hill with an external ditch ; "The most obvious physical remains of the Iron Age in Wales are the hillforts. The term is a loose one and means no more than an Iron Age site which was defended by ramparts of earth or stone, usually with an external ditch." - from Roman Wales by William Manning (2001) #wales #roman #hillfort #ironage #hill #landscape

Alice Roberts walking along a hillfort in the latest series of 'Digging for Britain'.
Hello Alice @profaliceroberts.bsky.social 👋
I'm enjoying the latest series of Digging For Britain, as always!
Please forgive me if you've answered this umpteen times already, but could you possibly tell me where these scenic sequences on a #hillfort were filmed, please?

Excavations of the #Brusselstown Ring in the #Wicklow Mountains reveal the #hillfort was the largest nucleated settlement (600+ houses) in prehistoric #Ireland & Britain.
Dating from c.1200 BCE, this challenges the theory that the Vikings built Ireland's first towns.
