Portchester Castle, Hampshire. Love a good ruins.

Portchester Castle's remarkable history began in the 3rd century as a Roman fort. By the 5th century this waterside fortress was transformed into a Saxon settlement, and after the Conquest of 1066 it became a Norman castle. It was even used as a prison several times over the 17th, 18th and 19th centuries.

Hope you enjoyed the brief history lesson 😀

Portsmouth Naval war memorial.

Standing on Southsea Common, overlooking the promenade and the sea beyond. Unveiled in 1924, the memorial commemorates approximately 25,000 British and Commonwealth sailors who were lost in the World Wars. Around 10,000 sailors in the WW1 and 15,000 in WW2. The memorial features a central obelisk, with names of the dead on bronze plaques arranged around the memorial according to the year of death.

Southsea castle in all its glory. The castle was built in great haste in 1544, prompted by Henry VIII's fears of a French attack on Portsmouth...Henry VIII mobilised his fleet and was at Southsea Castle for the Battle of the Solent the next day. However, it was to be a dark day for the king; his much-loved flagship – The Mary Rose – sank during battle.

Southsea, Portsmouth.
