Message from Helene Sula

The Somerset Monument in Hawkesbury, England is a striking tribute to General Lord Robert Edward Henry Somerset. Built in 1846, this monument honors his military achievements during the Peninsular War and the War of the Seventh Coalition. While the monument itself is currently closed for repairs, it's still worth a visit to admire its impressive architecture and take in the views across the River Severn to Wales on a clear day. So, if you're in the area, don't miss the chance to check out this piece of history and enjoy the scenic surroundings!
