Looking east along the Roman Road at Two Gates The thick fog in this photo was coming in from the sea (to the right) and making driving on this narrow (but straight) road quite difficult. It had been sunny only a few hours earlier, which shows how quickly the weather can change on this high ground (238m above sea level). The Roman road eventually leads to Dorchester.

Glaciated chalk landscape, Eggardon Hill Looking south from the south-east entrance to Eggardon iron-age hillfort, this glaciated chalk escarpment is beautifully contoured and reminiscent of <a href="https://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/25255">SU2986 : The Manger, north of Uffington Castle</a>. A few sheep can be seen perched on the edge of the steep slope, to the left of the photo.
