A Grade II-listed stone obelisk on a grassy knoll along the Cotswold Way commemorating a Civil War commander. Shoot tight architectural details and wide vistas: the monument framed against sweeping Somerset countryside and dramatic skies at golden hour. Accessible via a short walk from laybys on Lansdown Road; free entry. Best at sunrise or dusk for warm side-light and long shadows; weekdays and early mornings avoid walkers. Expect bridleways and occasional sheep; bring layers and sturdy shoes.
