More from Portchester





Today's pictures are linked to yesterday's blog from Portchester Castle.  The first two pictures are of a wooden jetty.  I particularly like the perspective in the second photo.  As a kid I would catch crabs and small fish from this jetty and in the moat. 

The third picture is of the castle keep framed in the gateway of the 12th Century Priory Church which sits in the Inner Bailey of the castle.  I have attended weddings and funerals in this church.

The final picture is looking across the water to the Historic Naval Dockyard at Portsmouth.  It is just possible to make out several naval ships and by enlarging the picture it is possible to see the mast of Nelson's flagship HMS Victory.
