This is the hill top Iron Age Fort known as Oliver's Castle as shot from Roundway Down, Nr. Devizes, Wiltshire, England. The fort would have consisted of a wooden pallisade with fighting platforms around the inside. Evidence of a moat can still be seen. Sharpened wooden spikes would have been driven into the ground outside to slow the progress of invaders.
The most beautiful place of my hometown, it was on my list for years now.
I took the chance when it started to snow. Captured a whole series which I will show in the coming weeks. I will also add some historical information.
and share it.
