A grizzly end for pirate Richard Hitchins, captured of Alderney, in 1565. He was tried and executed for his crimes at the low water mark near St Martin's Point 'and there remainethe in chaines' (thus was gibbeted).☠️
After many requests, and because I have some free time again, I'm offering guided tours of HMS Victory ⚓️
These 2-3hr trips explore the ship & the lives of those who served in her. Tours can be tailored to your specific interests, too.

Great evening @HangerFarmArts where we saw the premier of 'The Armada Chronicle'. A film made by @SarahSiddonsFC based on some of our research for @maritimebritain. Great audience and a wonderful group of actors.
As part of our @maritimebritain project, we've been working with a group of local actors who will be helping bring some of our research alive this summer across Southampton. See link below. https://t.co/YakCel6g9Q
