Truly Blippin' Marvelous

Some of the prints I've collected over the years. Some remind me of special places and people. There is a print of the quay at Maldon including St Mary's church where an old friend of mind was vicar. My dad taught French at a school in Maldon for ten years.

Goggeshall where many children from Kelvedon went to the secondary school and the mother of a friend of mine taught.

Felix Hall, home of the Weston family in the nineteenth century, accidentally burned down during renovations with only a small portion remaining livable. The author of the Andy Pandy stories and television children's programme lived there in the 1950's.

Colchester castle; Raglan castle and a print of King's College Chapel at the other place.. At the time of the civil wars Oxford was garrisoned 'for want of loyalty' and Cambridge given a library 'for want of learning' . . .
