Runnymede
Runnymede is a low-lying Thames water-meadow and adjoining slopes in Surrey, England, managed in large part by the National Trust. It is best known as the probable site where King John sealed Magna Carta in 1215 and today contains several 20th-century memorials, an ancient yew and remnants of medieval ecclesiastical buildings. The landscape comprises floodplain meadows, ponds and the wooded Cooper's Hill slopes.

As it stood in 1215
What Runnymede looked like in its prime.
A wide, gently undulating Thames floodplain of long green and gold meadow grass, punctuated by shallow oxbow ponds with reed fringes and reflective water, and scattered mature broadleaved trees including a massive ancient yew on the riverbank. Beyond the meads a wooded slope (Cooper's Hill) rises softly, with glimpses of a small stone priory among trees on the far bank. Surfaces are river-silt and grass; the palette is meadow greens, brown river-water and pale medieval stone.
