I took this photograph on a stormy day at a time when the rain had abated. The road we were on took us past this iconic landmark on the Wiltshire Plains, so we stopped. Today, Stonehenge is recognised as a UNESCO World Heritage Site, but it's so old people really don't know why it was built. Sun worship is the popular thought and who is to say that is wrong. Certainly the alignment of the stones seems to indicate an association with the Sun at the time of the summer solstice, but nobody really knows. What they do know is that some of the stones were probably brought there from south Wales; it's the closest known place in the UK where such stone exists. With much of the folklore that surrounds Stonehenge reflecting a connection with th...

Heale House Number of views as of 1st June 2017 = 500. Heale House is situated in the tranquil Woodford Valley, just 4 miles north of the city of Salisbury (Wiltshire, England). The house was built in the 1550s by Sir William Greene and was given to his daughter and son-in-law as a wedding present. King Charles II of England took refuge at Heale in 1651 before fleeing to France. The estate has changed hands several times over the centuries, but was bought by the Hon. Louis Greville in 1894, the great uncle of the present owner. The house itself is not open to the public, but the gardens are open to visitors most days of the week - click here for details. Date: 22nd March 2015.

The Astro Baron Number of views as of 16th April 2018 = 480. The Astro Baron is one of 25 life-sized barons, which were placed around the city of Salisbury (Wiltshire, England) during the summer of 2015 by the Trussell Trust to commemorate the 800th anniversary of the Magna Carta. This baron, decorated by artist Jenny Leonard, has a space travel theme and is pictured outside Salisbury Museum. The Magna Carta is a charter agreed by King John of England at Runnymede, near Windsor, on 15th June 1215. Intended to make peace between the unpopular King and a group of rebel barons, it promised the protection of church rights, protection for the barons from illegal imprisonment, access to swift justice, and limitations on feudal payments to the ...

Red Bridge, Heale Gardens Number of views as of 5th July 2017 = 700. This bridge crosses one of several trout-filled tributaries of the River Avon that run through Heale Gardens in the Woodford Valley, 4 miles north of the city of Salisbury (Wiltshire, England). "When visitors step into the garden at Heale House they are immediately transported into a magical and varied paradise of running streams and exuberant planting that they return to time and again to experience its many different moods throughout the seasons." Date: 22nd March 2015.

Red Bridge Heaven Number of viewings as of 15th May 2017 = 380. I'm always tempted by images of red bridges in Japanese gardens, but in this shot there are not one, but FIVE such structures! Taken in the grounds of Wilton House, Wilton, not far from the city of Salisbury, Wiltshire, England. Date: 4th April 2015.

The Old Mill, Harnham, March 2022 It seems a little unfair to call Harnham a suburb of the city of Salisbury, as it has its own unique character, charm, and atmosphere. However, a short walk (about 1 kilometre) from the city centre takes you across the water meadows to the west of Salisbury Cathedral, and here by the River Nadder, you will find the Old Mill and Mill House at Harnham. Parts of the building date from the 12th century. A few hundred years later, the building became Wiltshire's first paper mill and the river was diverted to flow underneath it. The Old Mill is now a hotel and restaurant, and is a great place to relax with a drink by the river on a warm summer's day. Date: 20th March 2022. Location: Harnham, Salisbury, Wiltshi...

Arthur's Seat and Salisbury Crags, Edinburgh, Scotland. Arthur's Seat is the main peak of the group of hills which form most of Holyrood Park, a remarkably wild piece of highland landscape in the centre of the city of Edinburgh, about a mile to the east of Edinburgh Castle. The hill rises above the city to a height of 251 m (823 feet), provides excellent panoramic views of the city, is quite easy to climb, and is a popular walk. Though it can be climbed from almost any direction, the easiest and simplest ascent is from the East, where a grassy slope rises above Dunsapie Loch. Many claim that its name is a derivation of a myriad of legends pertaining to King Arthur, such as the reference in Y Gododdin.

Novichok (Russian: Новичо́к, "newcomer"/ "newbie""novice, beginner/ new boy") is a series of binary chemical weapons developed by the Soviet Union and Russia between 1971 and 1993. Russian scientists who developed the nerve agents claim they are the deadliest ever made, with some variants possibly five to eight times more potent than VX, and others up to ten times more potent than soman. They were designed as part of a Soviet programme codenamed FOLIANT. Five Novichok variants are believed to have been adapted for military use.

This is a part of Salisbury (Wiltshire, UK) that most of the tourists miss, which is a shame, as this old mill is the perfect spot for a refreshing pint. Out the back there is a lovely beer garden with water flowing past, but the best part is the front, where you can sit in the sun staring out to the cathedral across the river. A path runs alongside, connecting it across the water meadows to the heart of Salisbury, passing a spot where Constable was said to have painted the cathedral. Walk the other way, through the suburb of Harnham, and up the hill for another stupendous view of the city. Parts of the mill building date to 1250. With a diversion of the river Nadder, it was converted from ecclesiastical use to a paper mill in the 16t...
