The Huskisson Monument


Ah! I see I've exeeded the limit..... but I'd really like to finish the sequence of pics....

No1 is the view from the road bridge looking east from Parkside Rd

No4 Shows just how difficult the view is from opposite the monument.


Ahem!.......a bit closer!

..and finally ..........No8 the Inscription......


I do like the very early Victorian flowery phrases like: "Singled out by the decree ofan inscrutable providence.....etc etc."

I other words......He was in the wrong place at the wrong time!.......

Hope you enjoy the pics....I'll post the rest now...Personally, I've lived nearby all my life and never seen this monument before up close. It was worth the bramble scratches on my legs and arms!

Stand by for the last sequence..................
