The omission of numerous Scottish brochs, Orcadian stall tombs and even Severn Cotswold long barrows in this type of volume was unforgivable. To calculate the overall star rating and percentage breakdown by star, we don’t use a simple average.

On the ground, it is sometimes difficult to place the archaeology in its geographical setting, and this does it so well.

The stunning photography enables you to see some well known and not so well known ancient sites around the British Isles with a whole new perspective. Second World War anti-invasion measures such as anti-aircraft obstructions (ditches and earthworks) at Hampton Court Palace in 1941, and images from the same year of RAF Kenley showing camouflaged runways. Sign up today and you will soon be travelling back through time reading all our amazing features of the last eight decades PLUS.It is a shame that people who are privileged to produce this kind of book sadly seem to be motivated by nothing more than a desire to promote their own country. Atmospheric, aerial photographs capture ancient monuments in spectacular settings, showing how the sites relate to their landscapes from a unique bird’s eye viewpoint. If you’re in the EU, US, Canada, Aus or NZ please purchase my book through an independent retailer rather than one of the online giants.
