Christchurch Curiosities is a quirky compendium of little-known stories and facts about the beautiful heritage city of Christchurch. From an amazing tale about some Royalty Fishery salmon, to the story of how the prior persuaded King Henry VIII to exempt the Priory Church from the Dissolution, and the strange phenomenon of the river Avon ‘freezing the wrong way round’, it is full of accounts that will delight and entertain.
Each of the chapters deals with a different and self-contained topic with much previously unpublished material. Whether looking at the plan to create a nightclub under the High Street, the renaming of the town due to a religious legend, or the invasion scare of 1539, both residents and visitors will find much to marvel at here.
