Hello, I’m Alison – welcome to my blog. I’m interested in lots of things which you’ll read about here – like history, art, architecture, films, books and music. You will also read about my interest in Eleanor.
I was born in London and currently live in Scotland. I have a regular day job, I am also a guide at a local castle plus I am studying History of Art at University. The rest of the time I squeeze in being an a genealogist and photographer.
Eleanor is Eleanor of Castile, medieval queen and wife of King Edward I of England – the reason I started this blog. Eventually I hope to have a separate site for information about her and her family.
Do stay a while, have a read and leave a comment if you’re so inclined – but please do not use my content and especially my photographs without my permission. If you would like to contact me, please use the contact form below or click on my email address in the side bar.
