Headpile Eyot, River island near Bray, England
This elongated river island in the Thames features dense vegetation with horse chestnut trees and English oaks along its narrow stretches.
Archaeological excavations on Headpile Eyot revealed Bronze Age artifacts, indicating early human presence in this section of the River Thames.
