Cub Able showing off his year end (2010) wonderful beard. He wishes his beard would grow even longer and fuller.
I was able to make it to my usual spot a little after the 24 mile mark on the east side within Central Park. I understand the need for some added security because of the Boston attack but in my opinion the tens of blocks of barricades and numerous garbage trucks used to block streets could have caused serious problems if god forbid something happened and thousands of people started to run in all directions.
With that said it's always a great experience to see people from all over the world, of all ages and abilities come to take part in this storied race. Boston was very well represented! I've noticed over the three or so I've attended that the French contingent is huge. I like this spot because you get a great range of exhaustion, pain, elation, joy, sweat and tears. Congratulations to all those who participated no matter what your time, or mode of taking part!
400 also means being able to do night shots... not that this is remarkable, or even good, haha.
I managed to really stupidly ruin one roll after taking a grand total of two shots, and I had only brought two, so I ran out of film a shot or two after this... which is a pity, because I wanted to shoot more at night. The lights were pretty spectacular. Oh well.

I was finally able to visit The Succulent Cafe in Oceanside today, they are located at 322 N Cleveland St, in Oceanside, CA. I had been dying to go, I follow them on instagram and just had not gotten over there. There were tons of succulents, and gardens to purchase along with Teas and Coffees. The owner was super friendly and the joint is wall to wall succulents I was so excited to be there. There were huge living walls, and vertical gardens. I snapped a bazillion pics and enjoyed every second! I enjoyed a delicious iced tea of the day, and cannot wait until my next visit!!!
After melting in Ohio last week, I'm back home and was finally able to open this figure. No surprises aesthetically - people generally giggle at this figure, or they're disappointed at the half ass use of human legs. There was such potential for this set, but ultimately at best it's average like most of the gimmicky TBLeague sets..
I honestly wasn't paying much attention to the legs when it was preorder time, but i was hoping that this would actually be some fancy body that would actually have some sort of twisting/lateral articulation for the "horse body". But, between my in hand research and some brave souls on some Phicen boards, it's come to my attention that the section in question is really just the lower half of the main body body given only articulation at the legs and effectively fastened to the main body by the thing the saddle is is on.
I guess I should have known this would happen as this figure does come in just human form. To add insult to injury, there's no manual or anything that officially announced you could play with this figure in both modes. At the end of the day, it's just the regular body with a fancy add on. The fact that they're human jointed legs just makes things worse. The cherry on top is the fact that he horse tail looks pretty crude and just connects to the rear via a magnet.
If if makes one feel slightly better, the hoof is ball jointed, allowing for more stability. Of course, at best you can do is three legged poses with out a stand, as the joints are sadly too weak to support any two legged poses, which honestly would have made this a lot more fun to photograph, rather than finding variations of standing poses. Furthermore, the wrist joints are too weak to support the incredibly heavy die cast metal lance the figure comes with.
In addition, you get a shield, a helmet, some hands, and this weird tarp/cover thing for the rear of the body, which I'll never use as it looks very unwieldly even in the promo photos. The shield is both well designed and stupidly designed. One of the straps is connected by a magnet so you can pop that sucker off and get it on the forearm quite easily. The issue is the smaller strap is permanent, applied kind of crookedly. Furthermore, it honestly feels like they just grabbed whatever hands went with the human version of this and included them, without including hands that would allow for better interaction with the Lance.
Paint work looks to be alright. There's some areas which are kind of messy, but at the same time I cannot be completely sure that they weren't going for some sort of weathered effect. So I'll stick with "it's OK". What isn't OK is the fact the body had some surface peeling straight out of the box. I feel that some of the armour, especially the forearm guard on the right arm, should have had bigger looks so it fit on the forearm better (it has a sleeve of some sort).
Of course, there's always a sliver lining. Through much effort, I did manage to get a centaur to twerk.
The official was not able to explain why the gardens are covered and this area isn't. These partially restored tiled mosaic floors show some of the damage, after one of the wettest years on record for Portugal. They literally filled in the puzzle pieces on some of these. When I was younger, you could park in this area right by the wall. And the ground was littered with tiny mosaic pieces ripe for the picking for collectors. They only started retrieving the pieces in the early 80's, about the same time they started concentrating on discovering the city underneath the ground rather than objects in the wal. They also dicovered a grave yard in one layer in this area. In the 90's, they uncovered a forum and found an amphitheater on the other side of the city limits. Each year new parts of the city are uncovered to reveal wonderful things.

Now that my girls are back in school I was able to make a couple of birthday cards to keep on hand.

Today is Darek's 32nd Birthday! It was wonderful being able to celebrate it with him.
For many years our Christmas Tree has stayed up until my birthday so it would transform into my Birthday Tree. I decided that Darek deserved a Birthday Tree this year...so I got him a Mandarin Orange fruit tree.
We went to Denny's so Darek could get his free Birthday Grand Slam Breakfast.
As you are able today, please take some time to remember those who were killed in war, and to those veterans who survived
WW1 "The Great War", WW2, Korean War, Peacekeeping, Afghanistan
It's as simple as wearing a poppy and/or having two minutes of silence in Remembrance at 11:00 A.M., wherever you are... Or attending the various services being held... Or....
by musician Terry Kelly (as posted on Youtube, video here)
On November 11, 1999 Terry Kelly was in a Shoppers Drug Mart store in Dartmouth, Nova Scotia. At 10:55 AM an announcement came over the store's PA asking customers who would still be on the premises at 11:00 AM to give two minutes of silence in respect to the veterans who have sacrificed so much for us.
Terry was impressed with the store's leadership role in adopting the Legion's "two minutes of silence" initiative. He felt that the store's contribution of educating the public to the importance of remembering was commendable.
When eleven o'clock arrived on that day, an announcement was again made asking for the "two minutes of silence" to commence. All customers, with the exception of a man who was accompanied by his young child, showed their respect.
Terry's anger towards the father for trying to engage the store's clerk in conversation and for setting a bad example for his child was later channeled into a beautiful piece of work called, "A Pittance of Time". Terry later recorded "A Pittance of Time" and included it on his full-length music CD, "The Power of the Dream".

This was the last photo I was able to take in Paris before my camera fell over the ledge. Near La Seine! 🙈
Long story short, it was around 10pm on a beautiful Paris evening. I had my camera and tripod set up for a long exposure shot when a strange kid walked up to me and started laughing in a very weird way. He was a teenage boy. I quickly knew he was just trying to distract me so that he can steal things from my bag which was on my back. I turned around to make sure it was still closed when suddenly another kid pushes my whole tripod over the ledge.
I didn’t go after them because I ran down to recover my camera, only to see that my lens was completely broken. Surprisingly and thankfully my camera survived but I have no idea how! It was a good 5 meter drop.
Anyway, here you go! Hope you like it. 😁

Able to relocate this Townsend's Solitaire this morning and even had some better light, sunlight for about an hour.
An adult Townsend's Solitaire was found at Rock Cut State Park in Northern Illinois in late November and refound this morning. New county bird!!
I have been tired all day and haven't been able to function properly. I also have a lot on my mind.
I have seriously been so down lately that I can't even verbalize or write much about it because it seems to consume me. That, and sometimes it's easier to just shut your mouth and wait for things to pass.
Several years ago I had a dream where I was led through a garden filled with the most beautiful flowers one would wish to lay their eyes upon. I was wide eyed with awe. The end of the path emerged into a clearing where a kindly Asian woman sat at a picnic table, upon which sat a tall, wide mouthed jar. She asked me which flower I had enjoyed most. I went on and on about the beauty I had witnessed. She pointed to the jar sitting on the picnic table and told me that the flower growing inside of that jar was by far the most beautiful...more so than any I had already seen. I kind of chuckled, seeing only that the jar was filled with pebbles. She explained that the jar was indeed filled with pebbles and then water was added, seeping between them to the thin layer of dirt at the very bottom. Tiny, hard shelled, pods were placed on the top layer of pebbles. Watered several times a day, the shell of the pod would eventually start to break down and weaken. When that happened, threadlike appendages sprouted from the pod and began their trek through the maze of pebbles. It was a long and tiring journey to reach the bottom layer of soil, she had explained, but if one of the appendages made it to that lower most layer where the soil lie, life would be born from the pod above in the form of the most perfect white blossom. Its beauty, unimaginable, its strength indescribable.
At that moment I felt a hand on my shoulder and turned to see the silhouette of a man standing behind me. I heard music playing softly in the background. The man told me that he could feel my pain when he touched my shoulder. "This is your song," he had said, "and every time you hear it, you will feel every tear and sorrow in your life return to you...and while you feel so completely alone, you must know that I am with you and I feel each of your tears and sorrows as well. Dance through the pebbles and find solid ground."
That is the last thing I remember before waking up. Never has a dream been so perfectly clear to me. As I readied for work, I hummed the portion of song I had heard in my dream over and over trying to figure out if it was a song I knew. It didn't feel familiar at all. I got in my car that morning and turned on the radio. As I pulled away from my house, I heard the song from my dream. It was as if I had fallen asleep again...but I was wide awake. I hummed along in amazement until the words began to flow. I listened intently and cried.
I leave you with the song from my dream, because so many times I return to it.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I've dealt with my ghosts and I've faced all my demons
Finally content with a past I regret
I've found you find strength in your moments of weakness
For once I'm at peace with myself
I've been burdened with blame, trapped in the past for too long
I'm movin' on
I've lived in this place and I know all the faces
Each one is different but they're always the same
They mean me no harm but it's time that I face it
They'll never allow me to change
But I never dreamed home would end up where I don't belong
I'm movin' on
I'm movin' on
At last I can see life has been patiently waiting for me
And I know there's no guarantees, but I'm not alone
There comes a time in everyone's life
When all you can see are the years passing by
And I have made up my mind that those days are gone
I sold what I could and packed what I couldn't
Stopped to fill up on my way out of town
I've loved like I should but lived that I shouldn't
I had to lose everything to find out
Maybe forgiveness will find me somewhere down this road
I'm movin' on
I'm movin' on
I'm movin' on

It was clear last night so I was able to set up my C11, spend several hours setting up the mount and the scope, faffing about with focus and guiding and calibration frames and all that sort of guff.
Then I pointed at M92, a globular cluster of stars in the constellation of Hercules. A grand sight. For all of 15 minutes before the clouds rolled in. Oh well. At least I got enough data to build this image.
The cluster lies at a distance of 26,700 light years from Earth and has an estimated mass of up to 330,000 solar masses. With an estimated age of 14.2 billion years – almost the same age as the universe itself – M92 is one of the oldest clusters known and possibly the single oldest globular in the Milky Way

First output of the Crossroads in 2014 Mef> Jorge Molder at the Chiado Museum
By cruzamentosmef
Long as the images of Jorge Molder fascinate me, and leave me out of them, able to continue to question me more and more. The photographs are exposure Chiado Museum titled "Soldier Captain King Thief", brings together an extensive group of works, the most significant series of the 1990s to the present, building a whole new narrative images that allows us to rediscover again his work.
The work of Jorge Molder is about duplicity. The images are no longer self-portraits because the intent of these does not result in any search for authenticity inside of its author, but rather, are fictional figures.
Molder, define an environment, a web of relationships often melancholy, around a universe populated mirrors. The mirror is machine doubling, is the first system of artificial reproduction.
The device uses Molder this universe, and to construct consists of two processes. The first is the metaphor, and in particular coded and mysterious nature of the securities of the series, which operate as a huge crime fiction, appropriating surrealism going to drink the authors as Magritte, Broodthaers and Cornell. And the second is the production of pure sensations of weirdness to it, use the blur, lack of clarity and general clouding of perception.
In the work of Jorge Molder photography appears to be one of the last means of manipulation and transformation of the body - from image to image portraits metamorphose. Molder takes his relationship with the work of Francis Bacon. Deleuze identifies in the work of Bacon's representation of a body that is not the order of the organic, but of the order of * feeling - and the feeling is the vibration that results from forces exerted on the body. We found the same vibration in portraits Molder.
The question of seriality in their work functions as an instrument which uses repetition to build a language from images. Each image gives meaning to earlier. Duplication is therefore the process of construction of meaning in the series. However, for Molder, the creation of meaning is different narrative.
Although they create meaning in sequence of images, each image serves as a red herring scattered at the scene, always leaving open the ability to interpret the onlooker. It is the absence of narrative that generates the field of possibilities of meaning.
The visit aims to propose rebuild against these clues left by Jorge Molder. More than mere spectators detectives will be looking for the key to the puzzle contained in his works.

Sunday, January 26, at 11am, at the Chiado Museum, National Museum of Contemporary Art, Lisbon
I am sorry but I may not be able to catch up with you all for a while (will explain sometime soon). So in the meantime here is a Little Blue.
I was able to take a half day at work so I could meet my parents in the afternoon! We went to Crystal City for a late lunch with my uncle. We then headed to The Philips. They had a cool American art exhibit that nicely summed up a lot of my American art history class that I took last semester. They also had this room that was made out of 440 pounds of beeswax. It was a pretty small room with a golden hue and a very sweet smell. The museum was also open late and had food and music, which was fun.

Few dogs were able to get out of the pool on their own, so everyone was waiting on a helping hand to drag them by the collar or neck.
I'm thinking this might have something to do with Ouzo's reluctance to jump in the deep pool - the dreaded exit. Though each time he did pretty good, needing just minimal help - but I know he hates for someone to help him out of the water.
This black lab did not mind it :) He's the same one that was diving with his tail high in the air a few photos ago.
For years I used a product on my hair called Rockin Ringlets and I was able to get this shipped from the US to the UK with no bother. Then the shipping rates snowballed to such a degree that it really wasn't justifiable to order it anymore - so alas my curls were subjected to the usual substandard products here in the UK for us curly girls.
Then Jenn came to the rescue of my curls and very kindly purchased some for me and sent them over! I can't tell you how happy my curls are!! Seriously if curls could talk you wouldn't believe what mine would say right now!!
Hehe! So thank you soooo much Jenn and hope you like the shots showing the end result :))
We made our annual trip to London in November. We travel down by coach from Slaithwaite and stay at The Cumberland Hotel at Marble Arch. It’s actually a weekend ladies shopping trip that is run as a fundraiser for Slaithwaite Brass Band – I’m the only bloke that goes every year! We decided ( the two of us) to stay down in London until Thursday this time as we wanted to see weekday London and be able to explore a bit further afield on foot. We covered up to 16 miles a day, which is tough going on crowded pavements with hundreds of busy roads to cross. I photographed anything that looked interesting but I bent a contact in the CF card slot, fortunately I had quite a few SD cards with me and the 5D has dual slots so I was able to carry on using it. It’s currently at Lehmann’s getting fixed.
With it being close to Christmas the decorations are up everywhere so there was plenty of colour at night. In Hyde Park the Winter Wonderland was in full swing, we’ve never bothered going to it before but I went twice at night this time. It is massive this year, I couldn’t get over how big it is and the quality of some of the attractions. The cost and effort involved must be phenomenal – it was quite expensive though. It was very difficult to photograph, with extremes of light (LED’s) and darkness and fast moving rides into the bargain. I think I have some decent usable stuff but at the time of writing I am only part way through the editing process so I don’t know for sure.
We set off at around 8.15 am every day and stayed out for at least 12 hours. The weather was poor for a day and a half with drizzle and very dull grey conditions, fortunately we had some pleasant weather (and light) along the way as well. Being based at the end of Oxford Street – Europe’s busiest shopping street – meant that I did quite a bit of night shooting on there. Although I carried a tripod everywhere I only used it once and that was during the day! Because there is always a moving element in almost every shot it seemed pointless using a tripod. I would have got some shots free of movement – or I could have gone for ultra-long exposures to eliminate people and traffic but it would have been problematic I felt. In the end I wound the ISO up and hand held – fingers crossed.
We walked out to Camden Market and Locks but it had been raining and we were a bit early as many were only just setting up for the day. We tried to follow routes that we hadn’t used before and visit new places. We paid a fortune to get in St Pauls but you can’t use cameras. This something that I fail to see the point of, ban flash if you want but if you are going to encourage tourism why ban cameras when there is nothing in particular happening in there. It’s a rule that seems to be applied arbitrarily in cities around the world. Fortunately we could take photos from the outside of the dome, which was real reason for visiting, and we had some great light. Expensive compared with a couple of euros in some famous cathedrals. I’ve wanted to walk to Canary Wharf for a number of years and this year we did. We crisscrossed the Thames a few times and tried to follow the Thames path at other times. We covered around ten miles but it was an interesting day. It was also very quiet for the last four or five miles. We got there about 12.00 and managed to get a sandwich in a café in the shopping centre at the foot of the high rise office blocks before tens of thousands of office workers descended from above. It was mayhem, packed, with snaking queues for anywhere that sold food. We crossed to the other side of The Isle of Dogs and looked across to the O2 Arena and the cable car, unfortunately there isn’t a way across for pedestrians and it was around 3.00 pm. With darkness falling at around 4.30 we decide it was too late to bother. We made our way back to the Thames Clipper pier to check the sailing times. They sail every twenty minutes so we had a couple of glasses of wine and a rest before catching the Clipper. Sailing on the Thames was a first in 15 trips to London. The Clipper is fast and smooth, the lights had come on in the city and there was a fantastic moon rise. It was nigh on impossible to get good shots at the speed we were traveling though and there were times that I wished I could be suspended motionless above the boat. Again, hopefully I will have some usable shots.
We felt that the shopping streets were a little quieter, following the Paris massacre it was to be expected, I might be wrong as we were out and about at later times than previous trips. I think I have heard that footfall is down though. It was good to get into some of the quieter backstreets and conversely to be stuck in the city business district – The Square Mile- at home time. A mass exodus of people running and speed walking to bus stops and the rail and tube stations. It was difficult to move against or across the flow of bodies rushing home.
Whilst the Northern(manufacturing) economy is collapsing, London is a giant development site, it must be the tower crane capital of Europe at the moment. It was difficult to take a shot of any landmark free of cranes, it was easier to make the cranes a feature of the photo. It’s easy to see where the wealth is concentrated – not that there was ever any doubt about it. The morons with too much money are still driving their Lambo’s and Ferraris etc. like clowns in streets that are packed with cars , cyclists and pedestrians, accelerating viciously and noisily for 50 yards. They are just sad attention seekers. From Battersea to Canary Wharf we walked the Thames Embankment, the difference between high and low tide on the river is massive, but the water was the colour of mud – brown! Not very attractive in colour. We caught a Virgin Train from Kings Cross for £14.00 each – a bargain!. We had quite a bit of time to kill around midday at Kings Cross so I checked with security that I was OK to wander around taking photos, without fear of getting jumped by armed security, and set off to photograph the station and St Pancras International Station across the road. I haven’t even looked at the results as I type this but I’ll find out if they are any good shortly. Talking of security, following Paris, there was certainly plenty of private security at most attractions, I don’t know if it was terrorism related though, I can’t say I noticed an increased police presence on the streets. It took us three hours and five minutes from Kings Cross to being back home, not bad for a journey of 200 miles. I can’t imagine that spending countless billions on HS2 or HS3 is going to make a meaningful (cost effective) difference to our journey. Improving what we have, a little faster, would be good. There are some bumpy bits along the route for a mainline and Wakefield to Huddersfield is the equivalent of a cart track – and takes over 30 minutes – it’s only a stone’s throw.
I had the good fortune of being able to “explore” the now defunct Frenchay Hospital in Bristol in the days immediately following its closure in May 2014. I put explore in quotes – I think you know what I mean!
Because it was so soon after its closure, all the power was still on, even the heating, but the wards, corridors and theatres were in a state of emptiness or haphazard storage, some items having been already shipped off to the new premises at Southmead, others being readied for the scrap heap.
Everywhere, messages had been written on walls, doors and even inside cupboards in evidence of a much loved and well respected establishment.
I was lucky enough to visit the hospital twice that week and set about trying to tell its story through my lens. I didn’t allow myself to move anything or set any shots up; only to switch on the occasional light such as in the operating theatre.
Altogether, a fascinating experience.
I was able to accomplish an almost impossible task this past weekend. My wife and I took our littles to a local farm for our family photo session. This was the first year I took our pictures and the babies actually listened to me. Here they are practicing their surprise faces for gift opening.

It is the end of the first week of the year, and normality has returned.
Somewhat.
This retirement thing is still a bit of a novelty, like being able to take advantage of a sale for train tickets, which I have taken advantage of.
More of that in the upcoming weeks.
But normality, on Wednesdays, beings another class for Jools and bridge for me.
Things is with bridge, in the RAF we were all the same standard, and so bid pretty much the same way, reflecting our hands. The only convention we did follow was to open two clubs for a hand with over twenty points.
So, for the first meet of the year, the lesson was weak overcalls.
Which was very interesting, and the reason for it is to force the opposition into a higher contract than they would like.
But with so many conventions and opening bids, unless your partner knows what you do, it may all bring chaos.
But anyway, the hands were sorted so we could all experience making overcalls and seeing how well or how badly we would do.
Ten of us turned up, two didn't, meaning that we took turns in sitting out.
It was all enjoyable, and there was tea and refreshments as well as gossip. The two hours flow, and I bailed half an hour early as I was heading to Folkestone.
Jools had an appointment in Canterbury, so she was going on the bus, leaving me with a good two hours to do something.
Something involved a church.
I saw Ss, Mary and Eanswythe was open between eleven and one, so I would head over, and also try to arrange a visit for my churchcrawling group.
It was a bitterly cold, but gloriously sunny day, I drive back along the Deal Road, past St Maggies through Dover and out up the A20 to Folkestone.
Folkestone was pretty quiet. Lots of parking spaces, and some shops have given up opening some days of the week: Mondays and Tuesdays, and on other days have reduced hours.
So I walked up the Old High Street, where most places were closed, then up to the snicket to the church, past the woold shop, where I thought maybe I should buy Jools some wool.
But didn't.
The church was open, so I go in and was welcomed by a volunteer, Pam, who I struck up conversation with.
It would be a pleasure to have the group, so details were exchanged and hopefully we will go back next month.
I photograph the Victorian glass, some by Kempe were of a very high quality, but the Victorians were thorough in their renovation, and little of the church before the 19th century remains. But I spot some.
The church is bitterly cold, and this is having a detrimental effect on some of the Victorian wall paintings, one on the north wall of the tower had deteriorated badly in the last few weeks, as there appears to be a leak around an old blocked up window, and the water runs down through the mortar.
After an hour, I was done, so say thanks to the volunteers, and walk back to the car.
I was hungry, it was nearly one, and should I wait for Jools or get something?
In the end I called in at Little Farthingloe Farm Shop for a warm sausage roll, and as they looked delicious, a Viennese Whirl, half dipped in chocolate.
The sausage roll I ate standing in the car park, the whirl I ate once back home with a fresh brew, and was crumbly and delicious.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
A superb location in a leafy churchyard away from the busy shopping centre, and yet much more of a town church than that of a seaside resort. It was originally a thirteenth-century building, but so much has happened to it that today we are left with the impression of a Victorian interior. Excellent stained glass by Kempe, mosaics by Carpenter and paintings by Hemming show the enthusiasm of Canon Woodward, vicar from 1851 to 1898. His efforts encouraged others to donate money to beautify the building in an almost continuous restoration that lasted right into the twentieth century They were spurred on by the discovery, in 1885, of the bones of St Eanswythe, in a lead casket which had been set into the sanctuary wall. She had founded a convent in the town in the seventh century and died at the age of twenty-six.

FOLKESTONE.
THE parish of Folkestone, which gives name to this hundred, was antiently bounded towards the south by the sea, but now by the town and liberty of Folkestone, which has long since been made a corporation, and exempt from the jurisdiction of the hundred. The district of which liberty is a long narrow slip of land, having the town within it, and extending the whole length of the parish, between the sea shore and that part of the parish still within the jurisdiction of the hundred, and county magistrates, which is by far the greatest part of it.
THE PARISH, which is about three miles across each way, is situated exceedingly pleasant and healthy. The high chalk, or down hills uniclosed, and well covered with pasture, cross the northern part of it, and from a sine romantic scene. Northward of these, this part of the parish is from its high situation, called the uphill of Folkestone; in this part is Tirlingham, the antient mansion of which has been some years since pulled down, and a modern farm-house erected in its stead; near it is Hearn forstal, on which is a good house, late belonging to Mr. Nicholas Rolse, but now of Mr. Richard Marsh; over this forstal the high road leads from Folkestone to Canterbury. The centre of the parish is in the beautiful and fertile vale called Folkestone vale, which has downs, meadows, brooks, marshes, arable land, and every thing in small parcels, which is sound in much larger regions; being interspersed with houses and cottages, and well watered by several fresh streams; besides which, at Ford forstall, about a mile northward from the town, there rises a strong chalybeat spring. This part of the parish, by far the greatest part of it, as far as the high road from Dover, through it, towards Hythe, is within the jurisdiction of the hundred of Folkestone, and the justices of the county. The small part on the opposite, or southern side of that road is within the liberty of the town or corporation of Folkestone, where the quarry or sand hills, on the broken side of one of which, the town is situated, are its southern maritime boundaries. These hills begin close under the chalk or down hills, in the eastern part of this parish, close to the sea at Eastware bay, and extend westward along the sea shore almost as far as Sandgate castle, where they stretch inland towards the north, leaving a small space between them and the shore. So that this parish there crossing one of them, extends below it, a small space in the bottom as far as that castle, these quarry, or sand hills, keeping on their course north-west, from the northern boundary of Romney Marsh, and then the southern boundary of the Weald, both which they overlook, extending pretty nearly in a parallel line with the chalk or down hills.
The prospect over this delightful vale of Folkestone from the hill, on the road from Dover as you descend to the town, is very beautiful indeed for the pastures and various fertility of the vale in the centre, beyond it the church and town of Hythe, Romney Marsh, and the high promontory of Beachy head, boldly stretching into the sea. On the right the chain of losty down hills, covered with verdure, and cattle seeding on them; on the lest the town of Folkestone, on the knole of a hill, close to the sea, with its scattered environs, at this distance a pleasing object, and beyond it the azure sea unbounded to the sight, except by the above-mentioned promontory, altogether from as pleasing a prospect as any in this county.
FOLKESTONE was a place of note in the time of the Romans, and afterwards in that of the Saxons, as will be more particularly noticed hereafter, under the description of the town itself. By what name it was called by the Romans, is uncertain; by the Saxons it was written Folcestane, and in the record of Domesday, Fulchestan. In the year 927 king Athelstane, son of king Edward the elder, and grandson of king Alfred, gave Folkstane, situated, as is mentioned in the grant of it, on the sea shore, where there had been a monastery, or abbey of holy virgins, in which St. Eanswith was buried, which had been destroyed by the Danes, to the church of Canterbury, with the privilege of holding it L. S. A. (fn. 1) But it Seems afterwards to have been taken from it, for king Knute, in 1038, is recorded to have restored to that church, the parish of Folkstane, which had been given to it as above-mentioned; but upon condition, that it should never be alienated by the archbishop, without the licence both of the king and the monks. Whether they joined in the alienation of it, or it was taken from them by force, is uncertain; but the church of Canterbury was not in possession of this place at the time of taking the survey of Domesday, in 1080, being the 14th year of the Conqueror's reign, at which time it was part of the possessions of the bishop of Baieux, the conqueror's half-brother, under the general description of whose lands it is thus entered in it:
In Limowart lest, in Fulcbestan hundred, William de Acris holds Fulchestan. In the time of king Edward the Consessor, it was taxed at forty sulings, and now at thirty-nine. The arable land is one hundred and twenty carucates. In demesne there are two hundred and nine villeins, and four times twenty, and three borderes. Among all they have forty-five carcates. There are five churches, from which the archbishop has fifty-five shillings. There are three servants, and seven mills of nine pounds and twelve shillings. There are one hundred acres of meadow. Wood for the pannage of forty bogs. Earl Godwin held this manor.
Of this manor, Hugo, son of William, holds nine sulings of the land of the villeins, and there he has in demesne four carucates and an half, and thirty-eight villeins, with seventeen borderes, who have sixteen carucates. There are three churches, and one mill and an half, of sixteen shillings and five-pence, and one saltpit of thirty pence. Wood for the pannage of six bogs. It is worth twenty pounds.
Walter de Appeuile holds of this manor three yokes and twelve acres of land, and there he has one carucate in demesne, and three villeins, with one borderer. It is worth thirty shillings.
Alured holds one suling and forty acres of land, and there he has in demesne two carucates, with six borderers, and twelve acres of meadow. It is worth four pounds.
Walter, son of Engelbert, holds half a suling and forty acres, and there he has in demesne one carucate, with seven borderers, and five acres of meadow. It is worth thirty shillings.

¶It plainly appears that this entry in Domesday does not only relate to the lands within this parish, but to those in the adjoining parishes within the hundred, the whole of which, most probably, were held of the bishop of Baieux, but to which of them each part refers in particular, is at this time impossible to point out. About four years after the taking of the above survey, the bishop was disgraced, and all his possessions consiscated to the crown. After which, Nigell de Muneville, a descendant of William de Arcis, mentioned before in Domesday, appears to have become possessed of the lordship of Folkestone, and as such in 1095, being the 9th year of king William Rusus, removed the priory of Folkestone from the bail of the castle to the place where it afterwards continued. His son William dying in his life-time s. p, Matilda his sole daughter and heir was given in marriage with the whole of her inheritance, by king Henry I. to Ruallanus de Albrincis, or Averenches, whose descendant Sir William de Albrincis, was become possessed of this lordship at the latter end of that reign; and in the 3d year of the next reign of king Stephen, he confirmed the gifts of his ancestors above-mentioned to the priory here. He appears to have been one of those knights, who had each a portion of lands, which they held for the de sence of Dover castle, being bound by the tenure of those lands to provide a certain number of soldiers, who should continually perform watch and ward within it, according to their particular allotment of time; but such portions of these lands as were not actually in their own possession were granted out by them to others, to hold by knight's service, and they were to be ready for the like service at command, upon any necessity whatever, and they were bound likewife, each knight to desend a certain tower in the castle; that desended by Sir William de Albrincis being called from him, Averenches tower, and afterwards Clinton tower, from the future owners of those lands. (fn. 2) Among those lands held by Sir William de Albrincis for this purpose was Folkestone, and he held them of the king in capitle by barony. These lands together made up the barony of Averenches, or Folkestone, as it was afterwards called, from this place being made the chief of the barony, caput baroniæ, as it was stiled in Latin; thus The Manor of Folkestone, frequently called in after times An Honor, (fn. 3) and the mansion of it the castle, from its becoming the chief seat or residence of the lords paramount of this barony, continued to be so held by his descendants, whose names were in Latin records frequently speit Albrincis, but in French Avereng and Averenches, and in after times in English ones, Evering; in them it continued till Matilda, daughter and heir of William de Albrincis, carried it in marriage to Hamo de Crevequer, who, in the 20th year of that reign, had possession given him of her inheritance. He died in the 47th year of that reign, possessed of the manor of Folkestone, held in capite, and by rent for the liberty of the hundred, and ward of Dover castle. Robert his grandson, dying s. p. his four sisters became his heirs, and upon the division of their inheritance, and partition of this barony, John de Sandwich, in right of his wife Agnes, the eldest sister, became entitled to this manor and lordship of Folkestone, being the chief seat of the barony, a preference given to her by law, by reason of her eldership; and from this he has been by some called Baron of Folkestone, as has his son Sir John de Sandwich, who left an only daughter and heir Julian, who carried this manor in marriage to Sir John de Segrave, who bore for his arms, Sable, three garbs, argent. He died in the 17th year of Edward III. who, as well as his son, of the same name, received summons to parliament, though whether as barons of Folkestone, as they are both by some called, I know not. Sir John de Segrave, the son, died possessed of this manor anno 23 Edward III. soon after which it appears to have passed into the family of Clinton, for William de Clinton, earl of Huntingdon, who bore for his arms, Argent, crusulee, situchee, sable, upon a chief, azure, two mullets, or, pierced gules; which coat differed from that of his elder brother's only in the croslets, which were not borne by any other of this family till long afterwards, (fn. 4) died possessed of it in the 28th year of that reign, at which time the mansion of this manor bore the name of the castle. He died s. p. leaving his nephew Sir John de Clinton, son of John de Clinton, of Maxtoke, in Warwickshire, his heir, who was afterwards summoned to parliament anno 42 Edward III. and was a man of great bravery and wisdom, and much employed in state affairs. He died possessed of this manor, with the view of frank-pledge, a moiety of the hundred of Folkestone, and THE MANOR OF WALTON, which, though now first mentioned, appears to have had the same owners as the manor of Folkestone, from the earliest account of it. He married Idonea, eldest daughter of Jeffry, lord Say, and at length the eldest coheir of that family, and was succeeded in these manors by his grandson William, lord Clinton, who, anno 6 Henry IV. had possession granted of his share of the lands of William de Say, as coheir to him in right of his grandmother Idonea, upon which he bore the title of lord Clinton and Saye, which latter however he afterwards relinquished, though he still bore for his arms, Qnarterly, Clinton and Saye, with two greybounds for his supporters. After which the manor of Folkestone, otherwise called Folkestone Clinton, and Walton, continued to be held in capite by knight's service, by his descendants lords Clinton, till Edward, lord Clinton and Saye, which title he then bore, together with Elizabeth his wife, in the 30th year of Henry VIII. conveyed these manors, with other premises in this parish, to Thomas Cromwell lord Cromwell, afterwards created earl of Essex, on whose attainder two years afterwards they reverted again to the crown, at which time the lordship of Folkestone was stiled an honor; whence they were granted in the fourth year of Edward VI. to the former possessor of them, Edward, lord Clinton and Saye, to hold in capite, for the meritorious services he had performed. In which year, then bearing the title of lord Clinton and Saye, he was declared lord high admiral, and of the privy council, besides other favours conferred on him; and among other lands, he had a grant of these manors, as abovementioned, which he next year, anno 5 Edward VI. reconveyed back to the crown, in exchange for other premises. (fn. 5) He was afterwards installed knight of the garter, by the title of Earl of Lincoln and Baron of Clinton and Saye; and in the last year of that reign, constable of the tower of London. Though in the 1st year of queen Mary he lost all his great offices for a small time, yet he had in recompence of his integrity and former services, a grant from her that year, of several manors and estates in this parish, as well as elsewhere, and among others, of these manors of Folkestone and Walton, together with the castle and park of Folkestone, to hold in capite; all which he, the next year, passed away by sale to Mr. Henry Herdson, citizen and alderman of London, who lest several sons, of whom Thomas succeeded him in this estate, in whose time the antient park of Folkestone seems to have been disparked. His son Mr. Francis Herdson alienated his interst in these manors and premises to his uncle Mr. John Herdson, who resided at the manor of Tyrlingham, in this parish, and dying in 1622, was buried in the chancel of Hawking church, where his monument remains; and there is another sumptuous one besides erected for him in the south isle of Folkestone church. They bore for their arms, Argent, a cross sable, between four fleurs de lis, gules. He died s. p. and by will devised these manors, with his other estates in this parish and neighbourhood, to his nephew Basill, second son of his sister Abigail, by Charles Dixwell, esq. Basill Dixwell, esq. afterwards resided at Tyrlingham, a part of the estate devised to him by his uncle, where, in the 3d year of king Charles I. he kept his shrievalty, with great honor and hospitality; after which he was knighted, and in 1627, anno 3 Charles I. created a baronet; but having rebuilt the mansion of Brome, in Barham, he removed thither before his death. On his decease unmarried, the title of baronet became extinct; but he devised these manors, with the rest of his estates, to his nephew Mark Dixwell, son of his elder brother William Dixwell, of Coton, in Warwickshire, who afterwards resided at Brome. He married Elizabeth, sister and heir of William Read, esq. of Folkestone, by whom he had Basill Dixwell, esq. of Brome, who in 1660, anno 12 Charles II. was created a baronet. His son Sir Basill Dixwell, bart. of Brome, about the year 1697, alientated these manors, with the park-house and grounds, and other estates in this parish and neighbourhood, to Jacob Desbouverie, esq. of LondonHe was descended from Laurence de Bouverie, de la Bouverie, or Des Bouveries, of an antient and honorable extraction in Flanders, (fn. 6) who renouncing the tenets of the Romish religion came into England in the year 1567, anno 10 Elizabeth, and seems to have settled first at Canterbury. He was a younger son of Le Sieur des Bouveries, of the chateau de Bouverie, near Lisle, in Flanders, where the eldest branch of this family did not long since possess a considerable estate, bearing for their arms, Gules, a bend, vaire. Edward, his eldest son, was an eminet Turkey merchant, was knighted by king James II. and died at his seat at Cheshunt, in Hertfordshire, in 1694. He had seven sons and four daughters; of the former, William, the eldest, was likewife an eminent Turkey merchant, and was, anno 12 queen Anne, created a baronet, and died in 1717. Jacob, the third son, was purchaser of these manors; and Christopher, the seventh son, was knighted, and seated at Chart Sutton, in this county, under which a further account of him may be seen; (fn. 7) and Anne, the second daughter, married Sir Philip Boteler, bart. Jacob Desbouverie afterwards resided at Tyrlingham, and dying unmarried in 1722, by his will devised these manors, with his other estates here, to his nephew Sir Edward Desbouverie, bart. the eldest brother son of Sir William Desbouverie, bart. his elder brother, who died possessed of them in 1736, s. p. on which his title, with these and all his other estates, came to his next surviving brother and heir Sir Jacob Desbouverie, bart. who anno 10 George II. procured an act to enable himself and his descendants to use the name of Bouverie only, and was by patent, on June 29, 1747, created baron of Longford, in Wiltshire, and viscount Folkestone, of Folkestone. He was twice married; first to Mary, daughter and sole heir of Bartholomew Clarke, esq. of Hardingstone, in Northamptonshire, by whom he had several sons and daughters, of whom William, the eldest son, succeeded him in titles and estates; Edward is now of Delapre abbey, near Northamptonshire; Anne married George, a younger son of the lord chancellor Talbot; Charlotte; Mary married Anthony, earl of Shastesbury; and Harriot married Sir James Tilney Long, bart. of Wiltshire. By Elizabeth his second wife, daughter of Robert, lord Romney, he had Philip, who has taken the name of Pusey, and possesses, as heir to his mother Elizabeth, dowager viscountess Folkestone, who died in 1782, several manors and estates in the western part of this county. He died in 1761, and was buried in the family vault at Britford, near Salisbury, being succeeded in title and estates by his eldest son by his first wife, William, viscount Folkestone, who was on Sept. 28, anno 5 king George III. created Earl of Radnor, and Baron Pleydell Bouverie, of Coleshill, in Berkshire. He died in 1776, having been three times married; first, to Harriot, only daughter and heir of Sir Mark Stuart Pleydell, bart. of Colefhill, in Berkshire. By her, who died in 1750, and was buried at Britford, though there is an elegant monument erected for her at Coleshill, he had Hacob, his successor in titles and estates, born in 1750. He married secondly, Rebecca, daughter of John Alleyne, esq. of Barbadoes, by whom he had four sons; William-Henry, who married Bridget, daughter of James, earl of Morton; Bartholomew, who married MaryWyndham, daughter of James Everard Arundell, third son of Henry, lord Arundell, of Wardour; and Edward, who married first Catherine Murray, eldest daughter of John, earl of Dunmore; and secondly, Arabella, daughter of admiral Sir Chaloner Ogle. His third wife was Anne, relict of Anthony Duncombe, lord Faversham, and daughter of Sir Thomas Hales, bart. of Bekesborne, by whom he had two daughters, who both died young. He was succeeded in titles and estates by his eldest son, the right hon. Jacob Pleydell Bouverie, earl of Radnor, who is the present possessor of these manors of Folkestone and Walton, with the park-house and disparked grounds adjacent to it, formerly the antient park of Folkestone, the warren, and other manors and estates in this parish and neighbourhood.
FOLKESTONE is within the ECCLESIASTICAL JURISDICTION of the diocese of Canterbury, and deanry of Dover.
The church, which is dedicated to St. Mary and St. Eanswith, consists of three isles and three chancels, having a square tower, with a beacon turret in the middle of it, in which there is a clock, and a peal of eight bells, put up in it in 1779. This church is built of sand-stone; the high chancel, which has been lately ceiled, seems by far the most antient part of it. Under an arch in the north wall is a tomb, with the effigies of a man, having a dog at his feet, very an tient, probably for one of the family of Fienes, constables of Dover castle and wardens of the five ports; and among many other monuments and inscriptions, within the altar-rails, are monuments for the Reades, of Folkestone, arms, Azure, a griffin, or, quartering gules, a pheon between three leopards faces, or; for William Langhorne, A.M. minister, obt. 1772. In the south chancel is a most elegant monument, having the effigies of two men kneeling at two desks, and an inscription for J. Herdson, esq. who lies buried in Hawkinge church, obt. 1622. In the south isle a tomb for J. Pragels, esq. obt. 1676, arms, A castle triple towered, between two portcullises; on a chief, a sinister hand gauntled, between two stirrups. In the middle isle a brass plate for Joane, wife of Thomas Harvey, mother of seven sons (one of which was the physician) and two daughters. In the north wall of the south isle were deposited the remains of St. Eanswith, in a stone coffin; and under that isle is a large charnelhouse, in which are deposited the great quantity of bones already taken notice of before. Philipott, p. 96, says, the Bakers, of Caldham, had a peculiar chancel belonging to them in this church, near the vestrydoor, over the charnel-house, which seems to have been that building mentioned by John Baker, of Folkestone, who by his will in 1464, ordered, that his executors should make a new work, called an isle, with a window in it, with the parishioners advice; which work should be built between the vestry there and the great window. John Tong, of Folkestone, who was buried in this church, by will in 1534, ordered that certain men of the parish should be enfeoffed in six acres of land, called Mervyle, to the use of the mass of Jhesu, in this church.
On Dec. 19, 1705, the west end of this church, for the length of two arches out of the five, was blown down by the violence of the wind; upon which the curate and parishioners petitioned archbishop Tillot son, for leave to shorten the church, by rebuilding only one of the fallen arches, which was granted. But by this, the church, which was before insufficient to contain the parishioners, is rendered much more inconvenient to them for that purpose. By the act passed anno 6 George III. for the preservation of the town and church from the ravages of the sea as already noticed before. After such works are finished, &c. the rates are to be applied towards their repair, and to the keeping in repair, and the support and preservation of this church.
¶This church was first built by Nigell de Muneville, lord of Folkestone at the latter end of king Henry I. or the beginning of king Stephen's reign, when he removed the priory from the precinct of the castle to it in 1137, and he gave this new church and the patronage of it to the monks of Lolley, in Normandy, for their establishing a cell, or alien priory here, as has been already mentioned, to which this new church afterwards served as the conventual church of it. The profits of it were very early appropriated to the use of this priory, that is, before the 8th of king Richard II. anno 1384, the duty of it being served by a vicar, whose portion was settled in 1448, at the yearly pension of 10l. 0s. 2½d. to be paid by the prior, in lieu of all other profits whatsoever. In which state this appropriation and vicarage remained till the surrendry of the priory, in the 27th year of king Henry VIII. when they came, with the rest of the possessions of it, into the king's hands, who in his 31st year demised the vicarage and parish church of Folkestone, with all its rights, profits, and emoluments, for a term of years, to Thomas, lord Cromwell, who assigned his interest in it to Anthony Allcher, esq. but the fee of both remained in the crown till the 4th year of king Edward VI. when they were granted, with the manor, priory, and other premises here, to Edward, lord Clinton and Saye, to hold in capite; who the next year conveyed them back again to the crown, in exchange for other premises, (fn. 23) where the patronage of the vicarage did not remain long; for in 1558, anno 6 queen Mary, the queen granted it, among several others, to the archbishop. But the church or parsonage appropriate of Folkestone remained longer in the crown, and till queen Elizabeth, in her 3d year, granted it in exchange, among other premises, to archbishop Parker, being then in lease to lord Clinton, at the rent of 57l. 2s. 11d. at which rate it was valued to the archbishop, in which manner it has continued to be leased out ever since, and it now, with the patronage of the vicarage, remains parcel of the possessions of the see of Canterbury; the family of Breams were formerly lessees of it, from whom the interest of the lease came to the Taylors, of Bifrons, and was sold by the late Rev. Edward Taylor, of Bisrons, to the right hon. Jacob, earl of Radnor, the present lessee of it.
