That's Sir Geoffrey Hill to You

Poet Geoffrey Hill has been knighted. Check it, from this Bromsgrove Standard article:

Geoffrey Hill, Oxford University’s Professor of Poetry, became a ‘Sir’ after being recognised for his contribution to poetry.

Although relatively unknown in Bromsgrove, the town where he was born, he is well-regarded in the poetry world.

Sir Geoffrey grew up in Fairfield where his father was village policeman and he attended Bromsgrove County High School, which is now North Bromsgrove High School. His grandmother worked as a nailer, hand-making nails in Lickey End.

He studied at Keble College, Oxford, and then undertook an academic career, with posts in Leeds and Cambridge, before going to America’s Boston University.

Sir Geoffrey has published more than 12 poetry books and his work can also be seen in ‘Three Bromsgrove Poets’, a book which also features Molly Holden and AE Housman.

Well played, Sir.
