David R Abram's 'Aerial Atlas of Ancient Britain': Forest Row 16th Dec
Please join us on Monday December 16th at the Village Hall, Forest Row all for an evening of inspirational images from author and photographer, David R Abram.
David has spent the past ten years capturing views of Britain’s most spectacular prehistoric sites from above in rare, sunrise light using drones and telescopic poles. Whether Neolithic tombs in Orkney, Bronze Age ceremonial sites on Dartmoor or the enigmatic earthworks carved by our ancestors over the South Downs, his images reveal astonishing forms invisible at ground level, and intriguing connections between the monuments and their varied landscapes.
Lively and rich with archaeological insight, David’s illustrated talk will cherry pick highlights from his book, the ‘Aerial Atlas of Ancient Britain’ (published by Thames & Hudson with a foreward by Professor Alice Roberts), which charts in 227 beautiful photos the arc of British prehistory, from the end of the Ice Age to the arrival of the Romans.
