Robin Hood Statue (02)

On 24th July 1952, the statue of Robin Hood (designed by *James Arthur Woodford) was unveiled by the *Duchess of Portland on the Robin Hood Lawn, beneath Nottingham Castle, in the remains of the moat on Castle Road.
Cast in eight pieces of half-inch thick bronze (made to last 6,000 years) and weighing half a ton, the 7ft effigy of Nottingham's legendary outlaw proudly stands on a two-and-a-half ton block of white Clipsham stone. In typical outlaw style Robin Hood stands outside of Nottingham Castle, the point of his arrow aimed at the gatehouse and the establishment within.
Gifted to the city by local businessman, Philip E F Clay, the impressive figure was intended to provide something tangible for visitors to see relating to Robin Hood, Nottingham's world-famous.

1st West Virginia Cavalry Regiment

Colonel Nathaniel P. Richmond was in command of the regiment at Gettysburg. It brought 436 men to the field in ten companies. Companies A and I were not present. (Union cavalry regiments had twelve companies as opposed to 10 companies for Union infantry regiments.) The regiment lost four men killed, four wounded and four missing.

The regiment was part of the 1st Brigade, 3rd Division of the Cavalry Corps. Colonel Richmond took over the brigade after the death of Brigadier General Elon Farnsworth at the end of July 3rd. Major Charles E. Capehart then took command of the regiment.

Colonel Richmond led the brigade south after the battle. During the night of July 4-5 it struck Lee’s retreating army at Monterey Gap during a wild night battle in a howling thunderstorm. Major Capehart led the regiment in a charge down the mountainside that captured numerous prisoners and destroyed many wagons, for which he was awarded the Medal of Honor.

O Legado do Castro de Monte Mozinho by vmribeiro.net

O Legado do Castro de Monte Mozinho

Alicerces de construções do Castro de Monte Mozinho, em Penafiel, um dos maiores povoados fortificados do Noroeste peninsular. A ocupação do sítio estendeu-se do final da Idade do Ferro à época romana, aproximadamente entre os séculos I a.C. e IV d.C. As estruturas em granito correspondem a unidades domésticas de planta circular e subcircular, com compartimentos, anexos e espaços de trabalho organizados em pequenos núcleos separados por passagens. A implantação tirava partido dos afloramentos rochosos, que serviam de base às construções e condicionavam o desenho dos arruamentos. Este urbanismo conserva elementos da tradição castreja, mas revela também alterações associadas à romanização, visíveis na reorganização dos espaços habitados e na progressiva adoção de modelos construtivos distintos. Protegido por muralhas, o povoado ocupava uma posição elevada com domínio sobre a paisagem envolvente e as vias de circulação regional. Cerâmica, moedas e escórias metálicas documentam atividades produtivas e contactos comerciais, confirmando a relevância de Monte Mozinho na organização do território durante o período romano.

Foundations of buildings at the Monte Mozinho hillfort in Penafiel, one of the largest fortified settlements in the northwestern part of the Iberian Peninsula. The site was occupied from the late Iron Age through the Roman period, roughly between the 1st century B.C. and the 4th century A.D. The granite structures consist of domestic units with circular and subcircular floor plans, featuring rooms, annexes, and workspaces organized into small clusters separated by passageways. The layout took advantage of rocky outcrops, which served as the foundation for the buildings and shaped the design of the street grid. This urban planning preserves elements of the Castreja tradition but also reveals changes associated with Romanization, visible in the reorganization of inhabited spaces and the gradual adoption of distinct construction models. Protected by walls, the settlement occupied an elevated position overlooking the surrounding landscape and regional trade routes. Pottery, coins, and metal slag attest to productive activities and commercial contacts, confirming Monte Mozinho’s significance in the organization of the territory during the Roman period.
