Description The following is the author's description of the photograph quoted directly from the photograph's Flickr page.
"For GWUK. The rather unmistakeable shape of Silbury Hill in Wiltshire. Looking all beautiful and enigmatic on a misty morning.

Owned by English Heritage. Here's what they have to say about it:

"The largest man-made mound in Europe,mysterious Silbury Hill compares in height and volume to the roughly contemporary Egyptian pyramids.

Probably completed in around 2400 BC, it apparently contains no burial. Though clearly important in itself, its purpose and significance remain unknown." "
