In early 2006 a light aircraft flew across the north coast of Anglesey on an aerial survey of the island. Then the photographer spotted something strange and took this photo. It revealed a massive earthwork about the length of two football pitches, until then no one knew there was anything here except a few lumps and bumps.

But what makes this even more intriguing is its location. In a landscape rich in archaeology and on an island that was once home to one of history’s most mysterious groups accused of magical rituals, human sacrifice even cannibalism… The Druids.

So what exactly is this strange earthwork?

As usual we got just three days to find out.
