The East side of Dorset is dotted with Neolithic a

The East side of Dorset is dotted with Neolithic and Bronze-age history. As we stood upon the hill we could see the remains of over half a dozen burial mounds, and walk amongst old earthworks. There are remains of long barrows, round barrows, and in places you can still make out the Dorset Cursus. Dating from 3300BC, why, how and the purpose of the Cursus remains unknown. But people were here, in the Dorset landscape, building monuments at the same time as the earliest phases of Stonehenge.

Walking through a landscape gives a unique sense

Walking through a landscape gives a unique sense of space, perspective and our scale in the world. On the east side of Dorset is an expanse of land that has a bigger scale, not the tight valleys you find in much of the south west but instead a far reaching view that stretches on and on. Here, you feel just that bit smaller in the 'big' landscape.
