Had a great time in Gibraltar and am working my way through the photos.

In the mean time there is a new page on Rawlsbury Camp and a gazetteer entry for Kingston Lacy's Kitchen Garden both in Dorset

Nothing new this month, but off to Gibraltar for the last week, so should be some updates soon.

Nothing new this month

Nothing new so far this month as I'm busy upgrading my computers.

Once that's done, I'll get back to the photos.

New this month is a brief article on Romsey Abbey, together with a gazetteer entry for Kingston Lacy Church.

I've also been revamping the New Forest Churches page, and added a gazetteer entry for Harbridge Church.

There is a new Gloucestershire section with pages on

• Lydney Harbour and
• Symonds Yat.

and gazetteer entries for:

• Clearwell Caves and
• New Fancy viewpoint.

That's about it for this month so can I take this opportunity to wish everyone a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.

The Beara Peninsula stuff now live with pages on:

Catching up with the backlog and have created a new gazetteer section for Somerset. No new photos, but there are some new ones in my article on the Roman Baths.

Also a new walk from Powderham to Turf Lock in Devon

Just got back from a couple of weeks on the Beara Peninsula in the far west of Ireland. I took over 1,300 photos, so it's going to take a while to work through that lot.

In the meantime, there are some photos of Wimborne Minster Flower Festival to be going on with.

New for September:

• Breamore House and Rockbourne Roman Villa in Hampshire,
• The Secret Garden at Serles House in Wimborne, Dorset, and
• Two new Wiltshire Gazetteer entries on The Pepperbox and Wilton Carpet Factory.
