Cheers Thanks Sans "Who is so deaf as he who does not want to hear, or so blind as he who does not want to see"    Report

Lord Byron who lived at Newstead Abbey (never an Abbey but a Priory) in Nottinghamshire mourned the loss of his dog "Boatswain" blasphemously placed the monument to his dog where the high alter had once stood. The "Hero" memorial at Thetford St Marys Cluniac Priory is thankfully a more respectful memorial to a pet dog! Happy hunting. N    Report
