Llanmelin Wood Hillfort
Small Iron Age hillfort with visible earthwork ramparts and mature trees offering layered foregrounds and wide views over the Wye Valley. Photograph dry-stone banks, circular banks from low angles, and long vistas at golden hour. Best at sunrise or sunset for warm side-light and long shadows; misty autumn or after rain adds mood. Site is on public land near Shirenewton — no fee but access requires a short walk from the roadside; limited roadside parking and narrow lanes, so visit weekdays or off
