Want to know a little bit about the Shire's past? Well, good gentles - feel free to peruse!
The Shire of Salt Keep 'stood up' in October of 1985 and even though many of its beloved members have come and gone... the goals and intent of this Southernmost Shire of the Kingdom of Meridies has always remained the same.
 
The device above was created to demonstrate the location of the Shire, where the Land meets the Sea (green and blue). The Castle (white) is made of sea salt - which has always been generously supplied by the Shire to the entire Kingdom and its Crown.
 
Here is the montage we proudly displayed at the Meridien Silver Anniversary Celebration!

And here is an example of an earlier mimeographed "Salt Talk" newsletter (one page/double sided) from the year 1987... We've come a loong way, m'lords n' ladies!
