#Caister
On 6th November 1459 died Sir John Fastolf, a notable soldier who built Caister Castle from the proceeds of his fighting in Europe.
On his death he left the Castle to John Paston. The result was a lengthy conflict between the Paston family and the local magnates who coveted the castle.

3 Nov 1916 // HM Trawler Glenprosen, a Glasgow vessel serving as a minesweeper, hit a German submarine-laid mine while sweeping off Caister-on-Sea, Norfolk. The explosion blew off her bow and she sank after a few minutes. Six men survived from her crew of eleven. #WW1 #RoyalNavy #NavalHistory

@whatafuckingrecord.bsky.social giving us two soul / disco bangers from 1973 that found new life in the soul boy / jazz funk scene of the mid 80s. You couldn't go out on a Friday night or to a Caister Weekender without hearing these wonderful records

Have searched, and failed, to find a useful reconstruction of Caister Castle circa 1469, so I guess I'm making my own... Needs practice.
