Today is the 5 year anniversary of NearlyKnowledgeable! I am grateful for all the support I've received on this journey! Being able to share Shropshire's story means so much to me. I'm feeling rather emotional thinking about how far I've come!

Aerial view of Caer Caradoc in Shropshire (UK), a large multivallate #hillfort built around 2500 years ago.

Caer Caradoc measures approximately 450m by 160m, enclosing an area of around 3ha. Unusually, it also has an ‘engineered terrace’ or causeway leading to the hillfort on the eastern side.

Caer Caradoc is named for a semi-legendary British (Welsh/Cornish/Breton) prince, who may have held the site as part of his territory.

Aerial photograph. In the foreground is a large green hill with no trees, and a series of complex earthworks comprising an Iron Age hillfort. The hill is long and thin, and the hillfort is oriented along the ridge; which is viewed in the photograph at 3/4 angle. In the background is another range of low hills (the Long Mynd), and between it and the hillfort is a flat valley with small fields and a town in the middle distance. The sky is cloudy but bright.
