Yorkshire

MVC-019F.JPG (64706 bytes) This is the point at which the Greenwich Meridian Line meets the coast of England in East Yorkshire; an area called Holderness.  The coast line is continually eroding away often uncovering submarine fossilised forests.   Next to this point is a caravan holiday park called Sand le Mer. An excellent place for Millennium celebrations.   The near-by village is Tunstall.
wpe7.jpg (39452 bytes) The next reasonable sized village the line meets is Patrington.  Here there is a gem of a church, locally known as the Queen of Holderness.  The exterior is remarkable for an ornate and very tall spire; a local landmark.   The spire was also used as a navigation point by Captain Bligh - mutiny on the Bounty - when undertaking surveys of the Humber estuary, just to the south.   The picture shows an interior decorative detail where an internal stairway allows access to the roof.  Patringtron has one of the finest parish churches in England but is too remote to be known by many.
