#Sunrise this morning in Bournemouth, at this time of the year the sunrise is close to the middle of the bay & after 8am
It might be a goofy composition but do enjoy using the pier as a lantern for the sun
#Bournemouth
While Cumbria ...not hugely known for its hillforts - here's Skelmore Heads Fort at the weekend, just above the village of Great Urswick

#MotteMonday with the Motte & Bailey at Halton, just north east of Lancaster
Date it was constructed unclear, possibly 1092 under Roger de Poitou

#RuinedPrioryFriday & Its Boxgrove Priory
Taken at dawn on Christmas Eve through the mist

#RomanRoads
#TombTuesday with Culliford Barrows, Dorset got a chance to catch these recently in a brief window of sunshine on an otherwise freezing cold day
Since it's #MosaicMonday & i'm in the area, always nice to see the mosaic fragment beneath Chichester Cathedral
a small piece of Roman Noviomagus, buried about a metre bellow the current street level
#StandingStoneSunday with the nine maidens Camborne, of which only 4 are still standing /not buried in a hedge
remember entering this field & half way over the wall i sort of lost momentum and toppled flat onto my back like a silent movie routine
also: find us at the other place
Thinking about #Magdeburg today 😔
was lucky enough to visit in August this year
Its a beautiful city, particularly the Cathedral
🖤
