Pictures I have taken for Wikipedia

Pictures I Have Taken for Wikipedia Name Image Date uploaded Description Location Pages using The Constable's House 18 April 2010 The Constable's House is a domestic Norman dwelling which was built within the original castle bailey in 1160, earlier than the existing stone keep. Much of the stonework survives, including a rare example of a Norman Chimney (one of only five in the country). The ground floor which has four slit windows was used as a storeroom. The upper floor accessed by steps outside and an internal staircase contained the main hall. As well as the chimney, another notable feature is the privy which extends out over the mill stream. DoE Reference: 1A/18 Christchurch, Castle Street. Grid Reference: SZ1605092706 Listed buildings in Christchurch, Dorset Christchurch Castle 19 April 2010 The castle ruins are of a motte and bailey construction and are of Norman origin or possibly even Saxon. It has been suggested that there may have been a castle on this spot as early as 924 AD when; after Aethelwold captured the town ramparts in 901 AD, Edward the Elder decided to fortify the town further with a wooden fort on a motte. After the Norman conquest (1066) the castle's defences were again strengthened with the addition of a ditch and bailey surrounded by a wooden palisade. The wooden fort was replaced; at first with another wooden structure and then in 1300, with a stone keep. Today the bailey is home to a bowling green and gardens, and the ditch has been filled but parts of the keep and the constable's house still stand. DoE Reference: 1A/17 Christchurch, Castle Street.

A bill was passed by the British Parliament in May meant that Wednesday 2 September 1752, was followed by Thursday 14 September and New Year’s Day changed from March 25th to January 1st (this was already the case in Scotland). A refusal by the City of London to pay taxes early, meant the start of the financial year remained 6 April. Cavendish, Richard (September 2002). "The Gregorian Calendar Adopted in England".
