March 1961, on the occasion of the visit by Bishop Holland, the newly-consecrated
coadjutor of the diocese of Portsmouth.
Note : This is also displayed on Page 146 of The Gallery as an
annotated 'close-up'. The above is taken from an original, however,
and is of slightly better quality. I am hoping that the size of this photo does
not cause problems for people who are still using a 'dial-up'
internet connection. For this reason I have limited
the number of photos displayed on this page.
