  • The King Stone, part of the Rollright Stones, a complex of three Neolithic and Bronze Age megalithic monuments near the village of Long Compton, England, United Kingdom. Constructed from local oolitic limestone, the three monuments now known as the Kings Men and the Whispering Knights in Oxfordshire and the King Stone in Warwickshire, are distinct in their design and purpose, and were built at different periods in late prehistory. The stretch of time during which the three monuments were erected bears witness to a continuous tradition of ritual behaviour on sacred ground, from the 4th to the 2nd millennium BCE.

  • Visitors to the ancient site of Stonehenge celebrate the Summer Solstice on the morning of June 21st - the longest day - by dancing in circles while holding hands. The Stonehenge site is a place of pilgrimage for neo-druids and those following pagan or neo-pagan beliefs. The midsummer sunrise began attracting modern visitors in 1870s. Today the stones are owned by English Heritage, the guardians of ancient and historical structures. Most years, substantial police and barriers prevent on-lookers from approaching the stones but on this occasion, revellers were allowed to party long after the early 4.15am sunrise. Stonehenge is a Neolithic and Bronze Age megalithic monument located near Amesbury in the English county of Wiltshire. Composed of earthworks surrounding a circular setting of large standing stones it is one of the most famous prehistoric sites in the world. Archaeologists think that the standing stones were erected between 2500 BC and 2000 BC and served as an outdoor observatory from where to watch the constellations. The site and its surroundings were added to the UNESCO's list of World Heritage Sites in 1986.

  • Ancient Bronze Age path and former drovers' route from Scotland to London, at Scotch Corner on the North Yorkshire moors. We look southwards downhill, a muddy lane on the edge of the North Yorks Moors National Park. For thousands of years, since the Bronze Age but more so in the last few centuries, the hooves of horses and sheep were transported along this path. Those treading the ground, helping to bring trade, spread news, introduce ideas and technology. Also known as Hambleton Street - or Via Regalis, after the Roman era - the footpath is now used by leisurely walkers on the Cleveland Way.

  • The Chapel built by sculpter John Bunting at Scotch Corner on Bronze Age Hambleton Street and medieval drovers and trade route, North Yorkshire. Local man Bunting (1927-2002) exemplified the master craftsman, discovering the derelict structure as 16 year-old and spending his life renovating the structure then carving in stone inside and out. The Chapel is open to the public 2-3 times a year and walkers and admirers of Bunting climb the hill via the drovers route from nearby Oldstead. Scotch Corner takes its name from the Scots and English battle of 1322.

  • View from Titterstone Clee Hill looking towards Brown Clee Hill on 22nd July 2020 in Cleedownton, United Kingdom. Titterstone Clee Hill, sometimes referred to as Titterstone Clee or, incorrectly, Clee Hill, is a prominent hill in the rural English county of Shropshire, rising at the summit to 533 metres above sea level. It is one of the Clee Hills, in the Shropshire Hills Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. Most of the summit of the hill is affected by man-made activity, the result of hill fort construction during the Bronze and Iron Ages and, more recently, by years of mining for coal and quarrying for dolerite, known locally as dhustone, for use in road-building. Many derelict quarry buildings scattered over the hill are of industrial archaeological interest as very early examples of the use of reinforced concrete. Several radar domes and towers operate on the summit of the hill. The largest of the radar arrays is part of the National Air Traffic Services NATS radar network, and covers one of 30 overlapping regions of UK airspace. The one on Titterstone Clee monitors all aircraft within a 100-mile radius.

Many derelict quarry buildings scattered over the hill are of industrial archaeological interest as very early examples of the use of reinforced concrete. Several radar domes and towers operate on the summit of the hill. The largest of the radar arrays is part of the National Air Traffic Services NATS radar network, and covers one of 30 overlapping regions of UK airspace.

  • Radar station on top of Titterstone Clee Hill on 21st July 2020 in Cleedownton, United Kingdom. Titterstone Clee Hill, sometimes referred to as Titterstone Clee or, incorrectly, Clee Hill, is a prominent hill in the rural English county of Shropshire, rising at the summit to 533 metres above sea level. It is one of the Clee Hills, in the Shropshire Hills Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. Most of the summit of the hill is affected by man-made activity, the result of hill fort construction during the Bronze and Iron Ages and, more recently, by years of mining for coal and quarrying for dolerite, known locally as dhustone, for use in road-building. Many derelict quarry buildings scattered over the hill are of industrial archaeological interest as very early examples of the use of reinforced concrete. Several radar domes and towers operate on the summit of the hill. The largest of the radar arrays is part of the National Air Traffic Services NATS radar network, and covers one of 30 overlapping regions of UK airspace.
