This hiking trail is named after a prominent poet from the 19th century: Alfred Lord TENNYSON (1809 to 1892). Coincidentally, exactly in the middle of the century, and thus almost exactly in the middle of his life, the previously commoner Alfred became 1st Baron Tennyson, and Queen Victoria personally raised him to the peerage. In the same year, she appointed him to the honorary office of 'Poet Laureate', a kind of court poet "whose job is to write poems for official occasions and national events." (Wikipedia knows). A monument here on the Isle of Wight is also dedicated to him, see
