St Catherine's Hill

This photo was actually taken last summer. St Catherine's Hill sits to the South East of Winchester, the summit it is 97 metres (318 ft). In 150 BC an Iron Age Hill fort was built here. There are also buried ruins of the Norman chapel that gives the site its name.

    when I enlarged the photo it is a wonderful scene
    of what looked like Winchester, is it? That would make a lovely painting.

    Sites of our early ancestors are scattered all over these islands, many pass them by daily and never notice them. Nice path to get up to this place.
