The 7thC Holderness Cross was discovered by a farmer at Burton Pidsea, East Yorkshire, #OTD in 1965. It spent 30 years in a drawer before his granddaughter took it to a ‘finds day’ at a museum in Hull. The gold pectoral cross is set with garnets.

These 1000 year-old ancient Persian vertical-axis windmills, standing in the arid landscape of Nashtifan, Iran; are not just relics but are still operational. Crafted from natural materials like wood and reeds, they harness the wind's power to grind grain, a testament to sustainable engineering from a millennium ago.

Their enduring design is a marvel of early technological innovation, reflecting a deep understanding of environment and resourcefulness in using renewable energy long before the industrial age.

The steps leading down to Burghead Well - a rock-cut chamber filled by a natural spring, situated within the Pictish fort at Burghead in Morayshire. Theories abound concerning its use, but it may have had a spiritual or religious significance. #StaircaseSaturday 📸 My own.
