Briticisms

"This royal throne of kings, this sceptered isle, This earth of majesty, this seat of Mars, This other Eden, demi-paradise, This fortress built by Nature for herself Against infection and the hand of war, This happy breed of men, this little world, This precious stone set in the silver sea." ~ William Shakespeare

Gold Hill 🇬🇧 This ancient cobbled street runs beside buttressed walls of the precinct, which are the grounds surrounding ancient Shaftesbury Abbey, built by King Alfred the Great. Their origins are not known, but are presumed to have been built in the 1360s! 📷: Hannah https://www.instagram.com/postcardsbyhannah/
