All About History Books
The Chronicle of Walter of Guisborough, a canon regular of the Augustinian Guisborough Priory, Yorkshire, formerly known as The Chronicle of Walter of Hemingburgh, describes the period from 1066 to 1346. Before 1274 the Chronicle is based on other works. Thereafter, the Chronicle is original, and a remarkable source for the events of the time. This book provides a translation of the Chronicle from that date. The Latin source for our translation is the 1849 work edited by Hans Claude Hamilton. Hamilton, in his preface, says: "In the present work we behold perhaps one of the finest samples of our early chronicles, both as regards the value of the events recorded, and the correctness with which they are detailed; Nor will the pleasing style of composition be lightly passed over by those capable of seeing reflected from it the tokens of a vigorous and cultivated mind, and a favourable specimen of the learning and taste of the age in which it was framed."

They intercepted at about 20,000 ft near Cromer. A general 'dog-fight' then took place. After which the leader called over the R/T to reform. A couple of minutes prior to the accident two or more aircraft were seen to be 'dog-fighting' at about 10,000 ft. over the area of Blythburgh. (witnesses on the ground confirm this and that they saw these aircraft were flying together and that they were executing violent manoeuvres for several minutes) One of the aircraft was then seen to begin a dive as if to try and catch up with another aircraft ahead of it - both were travelling very fast. The diving aircraft instead of pulling out gradually steepened its dive until it was probably over the vertical. It quickly gained enormous speed and one witness declared that as it is descended. it was executing an aileron turn to its right. It then struck the ground near the Blythburgh Poor Law Institute. Engine at full power it exploded on impact and caught fire.
