if you go way way way way way back my ancestors were the same as your ancestors - so you never know we could be related. Now how embarrasing would that be!!

But leaving my primate instincts behind me for a moment.......

My surname originates from the Gaelic surname Ó Dubhghaill, which means "descendent of Dubhghall". The name Dubhghall means "dark stranger" in Gaelic.

Sir Benjamin Hall, Commissioner of Works who designed said clock tower.

sadly he was Welsh, and I am half-Welsh. I don't use any Hon. prefix to my name and my mum was not Lady xxx though as the Baronetcy lapsed due to lack of sons in one generation
