A Memorial Flight and War Time Exhibition organised by Frinton & Walton Heritage Trust held on the greensward, Esplanade, Frinton-on-Sea .
A Spitfire from the RAF's Battle of Britain Memorial Flight was due to carry out a flypast to Pilot Officer Gerard Maffett , who was killed bailing out of his fighter aircraft in WWII at Walton on the Naze Essex.
Unfortunately, due to the weather conditions the Spitfire was grounded.
Not for the faint of heart, yet consider putting it on your 'bucket list'! The quiet moments aloft are interrupted only by the occasional thrusts of the burners. It is simply exhilarating!
trusting God:
for friends
security

Calke Abbey is a Grade I listed[1] country house near Ticknall, Derbyshire, England, in the care of the charitable National Trust.[2]
The site was an Augustinian priory from the 12th century until its dissolution by Henry VIII. The present building, named Calke Abbey in 1808, was never actually an abbey, but is a Baroque mansion built between 1701 and 1704.
The house was owned by the Harpur family for nearly 300 years until it was passed to the Trust in 1985 in lieu of death duties. Today, the house is open to the public and many of its rooms are deliberately displayed in the state of decline in which the house was handed to the Trust.
Calke Priory was found by Richard d'Avranches, 2nd Earl of Chester sometime between 1115 and 1120 and was dedicated to St Giles; d'Avranches had inherited from his father vast estates in both England and Normandy, of which Calke and many of the surrounding villages were part.[3]
Calke Priory was initially an independent community, but after the death of Ranulf de Gernon, 4th Earl of Chester in 1153, it (along with most of his Derbyshire estates) became part of the Dowry of his widow, Maud of Gloucester.[3] Maud initially granted nearby St. Wystan's Church, Repton to the canons at Calke Priory, but subsequently had a new priory, dedicated to the Holy Trinity, built at Repton. In 1172 she moved the Canons from Calke to the new Repton Priory, with Calke then becoming a subordinate "cell" to Repton Priory.[3]
Nothing is known of the priory during the 14th and 15th centuries, however, historian Oliver Garnett suggests the priory may have served more as the centre of an agricultural estate than as a religious establishment during this time.[3]
Repton Priory was dissolved in 1538, and its land confiscated by The Crown.[3] The cannons had, however, anticipated the dissolution and so had begun to lease out some of their estates: Calke was one of these, leased on 29 August 1537 to John Prest (or Priest) for 99 years.[3]

Pond Cottage seen long before its transformation into a Landmark. For many years it was used as accomodation for visiting fisherman.
Near the Topograph - a bit murky towards the horizon - cleared up later! The Wrekin is on the horizon about two thirds of the way across.

The National Trust is a heritage and nature conservation charity and membership organisation in England, Wales and Northern Ireland.
The Trust was founded in 1895 by Octavia Hill, Sir Robert Hunter and Hardwicke Rawnsley to "promote the permanent preservation for the benefit of the Nation of lands and tenements (including buildings) of beauty or historic interest". It has since been given statutory powers, starting with the National Trust Act 1907. Historically, the Trust acquired land by gift and sometimes by public subscription and appeal, but after World War II the loss of country houses resulted in many such properties being acquired either by gift from the former owners or through the National Land Fund.
One of the largest landowners in the United Kingdom, the Trust owns almost 250,000 hectares (620,000 acres; 2,500 km2; 970 sq mi) of land and 780 miles (1,260 km) of coast. Its properties include more than 500 historic houses, castles, archaeological and industrial monuments, gardens, parks, and nature reserves. Most properties are open to the public for a charge (members have free entry), while open spaces are free to all. The Trust had an annual income of nearly £724 million in 2023/24, largely from membership subscriptions, donations and legacies, direct property income, profits from its shops and restaurants, and investments. It also receives grants from a variety of organisations including other charities, government departments, local authorities, and the National Lottery Heritage Fund.
