SOME WEBSITES THAT I JUST LIKE!

Friends of Caldecote Church

Matthew Quinton was descended from the fictitious Barons Caldecote, and this lovely, isolated little church might have made a perfect place of worship for them.

Jim Bender’s Anglo-Dutch Wars Blog

A treasure trove of information and a tribute to the curiosity and perseverance of the man behind it.

The Shipwrights' Palace

The historic dockyard site at Deptford, established by Henry VIII in 1513 and the setting for one of Matthew Quinton's adventures in The Mountain of Gold, is under threat from a massive redevelopment. This excellent blog draws attention to the history of the yard and the problems facing it.

A website devoted to Nigel Tranter

One of the biggest influences on my work.
