Hi this is Robin Oluton testing the system. Can someone come back to me if it works - thanks
You might be interested in this weblog post - The Reproach of Annesley - about the Maxwell Gray novel whose central location is "Arden", closely based on Arreton.

Thank you, Ray. I will certainly do something with that. It's about time this blog was updated anyway!
Thanks! It might even mesh with local history. In the novel, Mr Rickman at Arden Manor is a geeky old antiquarian who collects coins and historical memorabilia. I just Googled a little and find references in various antiquarian/collecting journals showing that Frederick Roach, who lived at Arreton Manor in the time slot when the novel is set, had so similar interests that one might strongly suspect Rickman to be based on him.
