EDITORS COMMENTS
This aerial print showcases the remarkable Throp Roman fortlet, nestled in the picturesque region of Cumbria. Taken by talented photographer Damian Grady in 2017, this image beautifully captures the essence and grandeur of this ancient Roman site. The Throp Roman fortlet, dating back to a time when empires ruled and legions marched, is an awe-inspiring testament to the ingenuity and engineering prowess of its creators. The earthwork design is clearly visible from above, revealing intricate details that have withstood centuries of weathering. As we gaze upon this photograph, we are transported back in time to an era where soldiers once stood guard atop these walls. The strategic location chosen for this fortlet allowed it to serve as a vital stronghold along Hadrian's Wall - a monumental structure that stretched across northern England. The aerial perspective offers us a unique glimpse into the layout and scale of Throp Roman fortlet. From above, we can appreciate how it was carefully positioned within its natural surroundings – commanding breathtaking views over the surrounding landscape while providing essential protection for those within its walls. Thanks to Historic England's commitment to preserving our rich heritage, images like these allow us to marvel at past civilizations' achievements. This stunning print serves as a reminder of our shared history and invites us on an imaginary journey through time – inviting us to explore and learn from those who came before us.
