Coronationalia

Feeling a bit more energetic, I drove to Titchfield and walked to Hill Head - on the Solent and back (6.5 miles).

Titchfield has quite a picturesque centre and has engaged with CIIIR in a big way.

I'm indifferent myself, but was quite taken by the postbox knit  - especially the lugubrious face.

Extra 1 Is the tomb of the Earl of Southampton in St Peter's church, Titchfield:
In his will of 1582, the 2nd Earl ordered that two monuments should be built, one for his father Thomas and mother Jane, the other for himself. But there was a significant delay and the result was a single monument bearing three effigies, all carved from marble and alabaster.


Extra 2 is some twitchers looking out to sea near Hill Head.
