Messy nature = good nature. Take St. Catherine’s Hill — long grasses, short grasses, hedges, trees, scrub. Looks a bit messy? That’s the point. 📷 Charlie Hellewell

Peatlands store twice the amount of carbon than all the world's forests. They help control flooding, reduce wildfire risk, drought, and provide important habitat for rare wildlife. Wicken Fen is one of the last refuges for a host of species dependent on peatland soils. #WorldPeatlandsDay

Time-transformed the stones may be, diminished in power as story engines they're not. Once portal tomb and now lichen-dressed lithic huddle, the shadow of the Long Neolithic is still cast. They still provide spine for folklore's living current to bloom upon. – Dr. K. Brophy 1982 #StandingStoneSunday

You might just have to take my word for it, but this is a hillfort! Lurking beneath the trees is Burrow Fort near Hopesay in Shropshire. Didn't climb it as was on a different quest, but someone here will have done, I hope? (At least I stopped to take the photo ...) #HillfortsWednesday

🌿 Iunius —the #Roman name for #June—was once the 4th month, becoming the 6th after reforms. It may be named for #Juno, queen of the gods. On 1st June, were anniversaries of the temples of Juno Moneta, #Mars & the Tempestates. Juno Moneta, guardian of state funds, gave rise to the words money & mint.
