Thatched Cottages

            I have photographed these two cottages in Southwick, Hampshire before but only individually as parked cars in the road were blocking the view. On this visit in June last year the village was hosting a D Day Revival weekend - hence the flags on one of the cottages. Parking in the road was heavily restricted so this shot was too good to miss!

The quiet village of Southwick rose to prominence in 1944 as in the lead up to the D Day landings on 6 June nearby Southwick House became the headquarters of the main allied commanders, General Dwight Eisenhower, Admiral Bertram Ramsey and General Bernard Montgomery. It was from Southwick House they planned and oversaw the invasion of Europe and are known to have used the Golden Lion public house in the centre of the village for an evening drink.
