Syn 2014 photos: Evensong

The fabulous Bloco Fogo samba band.

Also: general pictures, the Trial at The Bowery,
the Art Display and the Dymchurch Mummers.

And I've found some more 'Return of Dr Syn' photos

Dymchurch in the National News - and the Countryfile smugglers feature.

Deal

Now Eastbourne has followed Hastings in losing it's pier,
hopefully temporarily, Deal remains the local example.

Spearfish Creek Wild West group at Damyns Hall.

What you’ll find here:

Information on the next Day of Syn, a little about the Day of Syn Society and a roster of the characters featured in the seven Doctor Syn books. (Well, four of them so far.)

The Night Riders, excise men, Dragoons and . . . carpenters; all reside within!

Eventually I will complete the character information, include daguerreotypes of the events at Dymchurch and details of the film and television versions of the books.
