Color Challenge Thursday: Green - Castell Henllys Iron Age Village, Wales

in #colorchallenge7 years ago (edited)

2,000 years ago the Demetae tribe had an Iron Age village on the exact spot where Castell Henllys is built today.

With a range of round houses showing how our ancestors lived, the replica hill fort is on an outcrop with amazing views of the Welsh countryside, in the Pembrokeshire Coast National Park.

All photos taken by me. If you have enjoyed this glimpse into our Iron Age past please follow, upvote and resteem!

Until next time, Nikki the MaskedBlogger. x

Hi @runicar The round houses are made in a variety of styles, with the walls being made from wattle (woven wood) and daub (straw and mud) and the roofs are made from tree trunks and thatched from straw or heather.

Thanks for inviting me to the competition! I've added this post and a couple of others to the world map. :-)

I am very happy that we are living in the 21st century, technology makes life easier and the amenities are incredible

Hi @malos10 I agree that we have some great advantages living in this era, but I think it would be great to experience the comradeship and support of being in such a tight-knit community. They would spend their spare time telling tales and stories by the fire, which also appeals to me.
