Great building on St John's street, Wolverhampton. Over 400 years old. Wonder who looked down from those windows. 👀 King Charles I stayed just up the road in a long demolished building.

Checking dust levels of room you are about to stay in, is essential. Behind scenes filming with BBC at Aston Hall Birmingham #Aston #CharlesI #History #king #humour #KingCharles #Royal #Royals

Stood in King's bedroom. On this day 1642, King Charles I stayed night here at Aston Hall on way to London. En route coming across Parliamentary Forces & Battle of Edgehill was fought on 23rd October #Aston #Astonhall #England #History #KingCharles #CharlesI #Englishcivilwar

Was an honour to finally see the Mary Rose wreck site from Southsea Castle in the expert company of Mark Havey manager of Southsea Castle. Moment had long dreamed of. Hardly a breeze on top, unlike one of several previous attempts to get to a viewpoint when castle out of season. Truly meant to be!

For years dreamt of overlooking site where Mary Rose was raised. Past attempts to visit Southsea Castle timed badly. Yesterday stars aligned, got my moment. Coincidentally on anniversary witnessing the warship coming up on BBC tv as a child. #Portsmouth #Blessed #History #seaview #maryrose #Southsea

A great honour to support the great history of portsmouth & Southsea Castle 🙌 #Portsmouth #Southsea #Castle #History #KingCharles #CharlesI #England @maryrosemuseum.bsky.social

Pleasure to meet Mark Havey manager of Southsea Castle. Thank you for your great tour around such oustanding history (we are stood below coat of arms of Charles II). A heartfelt moment for me to finally see, stand at viewpoint, overlooking where Mary Rose sank ✝️ #Portsmouth

Cross on the side of Bayle Museum Bridlington. In every dark time through the ages, a constant reminder there is hope and to stay strong until light returns #Bridlington #Cross #Christianity #Christianity #Sunday #Yorkshire #SundayThoughts #Hope #Light #Symbol #England

Just coincidence wearing a t shirt with CR initials of King Charles I, Carolus Rex watching Level 42 in concert last night. 🤔 By the way, they were outstanding! #KingCharles #CharlesI #History #Level42 #80s #80smusic #Random #Coincidence #England #popmusic #Popband

Rare you will see a 17th century King smile. A regal stance to maintain. Although of course they did. Meeting the charismatic Professor Baroness Sue Black, President of St John’s college #Oxford on my visit, a joy 🌹 #architecture #KingCharles #CharlesI #Art #History #England
