For the Love of the British Isles: BLAKENEY

Blakeney sits almost on the border of England and Wales, squeezed between the Severn Estuary and the Forest of Dean. The only noteworthy things about it, are its location, (handy for touring the Forest of Dean, the Wye Valley and the Brecon Beacons) and a very nice pub called the Cock Inn!

It was the site of a Roman villa, dating to 75 AD, and home to Thomas Sternhold, a groom of King Henry VIII's Robes.

For the Love of the British Isles

The one thing I love, is riding my motorcycles around the beautiful British Isles. This is a collection of some of the places I've been, and seen.

These small islands are an entire library of different geographies, history back to the dawn of time, and some of the most beautiful places in the world.

The pages are split into counties and two or three of the largest cities, and will be updated by me, whenever I come back from my travels.

Please take the time to explore them, as I myself explore the real thing. Oh, and don't imagine all of the posts will be about well-known places. I like the unusual and the obscure.

I hope you enjoy them!
