King Charles I statue looking over me – recreating him in the present, outside St George's Chapel Windsor Castle. Paying respects at his resting place, always a deeply profound moment, as was again on Saturday after my talks on the king's life– I am blessed #Windsor #CharlesI #History #KingCharles

THE REASON GOOD WORKMANSHIP LASTS: This medieval lectern survived around 50 years hidden in River Cherwell. The villagers of Cropredy, fearful it would be destroyed, hid it from the puritanical Roundheads. It finally saw light of day again in 1695 Photo~Guy Thornton #BuiltToLast

Of last memories cherished with Dad: visiting Oscott College in footsteps of Pope Benedict XVI Was not expecting to see a Charles II Silver tankard commorating the Royal Oak amongst items donated by 16th Earl of Shrewsbury. Dad will always be part of my journey, I'm grateful. #SuttonColdfield

WORCESTER: THE FAITHFUL CITY. HOW DID IT GET THIS NAME? For backing King Charles I & II in Civil Wars. Loyalty was punished 1651: walls torn down, citizens bankrupted, Cathedral turned into a prison. Any 'dawn of democracy' sidelined by a military dictatorship under Cromwell #Worcester #England

With the weight of an unpredictable, precarious Kingdom on his mind, King Charles I used the game of bowls to help centre his worries for it. Good for well-being, it has been played in Windsor & England for over 700 years. #Windsor #History #England

History is eroding before our eyes. In Warwick Castle gaol, Master John Smyth—gunner to King Charles I wrote an inscription in 1642. Its almost faded. His voice, tragically nearly silenced. A touching reminder that everything—even our legacies—are ephemeral. #Warwick #History
