The Links Page :
As the range of our activities is so diverse,
we have a number of different websites. The site
you are currently viewing concentrates on the
three non-fiction books written by Geoffrey
Miller, dealing with British Naval Policy in the
Mediterranean from 1900 to 1915. The main
Flamborough Manor site focuses primarily on
accommodation but has brief details of all our
other activities. To allow for more information
to be presented on these other activities, there
are other self-contained web-sites. All our
web-sites have a
LINKS
page in common, which allows for easy navigation
between the various sites. To find out where you
