@UoNArch are at Housesteads on Hadrian’s wall with @WillBowden1 and @Buildingbod - it’s atmospheric! (that means cold…)

@PalaeoHan Oh gosh so am I! I’d forgotten that started today.

I’m on research leave. Behold the productivity (once I’ve had a nap).

@WillBowden1 @UoNArch @UoNHumanities The tour continues at Arbeia South Sheila’s Roman fort with @WillBowden1 - look at that granary! @UoNArch @UoNHumanities

The @UoNArch @UoNHumanities magical mystery tour begins at St Paul at Jarrow. Hearing from @Buildingbod about the work of Rosemary Cramp.

We had a brilliant time yesterday showcasing how digital technology can be used to experience and reimagine Nottingham’s caves! A huge thank you to our participants for sharing their expertise and enthusiasm for Nottingham’s heritage #CityofCaves

Thanks to @Castle_Studies for open access publishing my article on @NTTattershall Castle in the 13th Century. Most scholarship has focused on the 15thC castle so this has been a great opportunity to look at the origins of the site. castlestudiesgroup.org.uk/CSGJ36-05-10-2… @UoNArch @NatTrustArch

We had A GREAT @BeingHumanFest. Thank you so much for letting us be a part of it, and thank you to our amazing partners and audiences. Here are our stats at a glance. @Buildingbod @DrAnnaWalas @CharlotteFMay @UoNArch @UonHistory

We have a lot of little heritage explorers on our final tour of today at @cityofcaves as part of @BeingHumanFest. In total 112 people benefitted today from the free festival. Thank you to the sponsors @ahrcpress @BritishAcademy_ @UoNArts and organisers @UoNArch

Thank you to local communities of Nottingham, so far we have had almost 450participants on our @BeingHumanFest & we are only half way through the festival. Thank you to our collaborators, venues, tour guides, event managers, assistants & janitors who help ensure this run smoothly

"At Nottingham we next arrived, built on rock but ill-contrived" 👋 Guess where I've just been! The wonderful jewel in our crown that is the @cityofcaves, courtesy of the #whatliesbeneath festival. Thank you 🙏

We had LOTS of fun with @BeingHumanFest participants exploring photogrammetry and VR in the context of #NottinghamCaves. Here’s a glimpse of our PI @Buildingbod explaining the 3D magic at @Nottm_Contemp. Thank you @ArtsDigitalHub for running the event with us & @DrAnnaWalas.

Over 300 people have attended our events so far, & we are only 1/3 through the @BeingHumanFest. Tonight we have more tours of the @WollatonHall caves, tmr we will be at @cityofcaves providing you with more cave heritage goodness. LET'S GO! @UoNArch @Buildingbod @CharlotteFMay

Our entire project team are looking forward to the launch of our community and public engagement programme. Big thank you to our PI @Buildingbod and his Co-I Richard Goddard for leading the project, and to our ECRs, @DrAnnaWalas and @CharlotteFMay for their work.

Great to visit @UoNArch students in the final days of this year’s ‘We dig…Wollaton’ with @YArchaeology! Despite challenging weather they’ve made great progress - more signs of the Willoughby’s lost greenhouse emerging.

Can't begin to tell you what an AMAZING line up of papers and speakers we have for our conference ! All details here socmusarch.org.uk/conference/ We have an amazing venue University of Nottingham Museum@nlamuseum @LakesideArts @UniofNottingham nottingham.ac.uk/library/museum… 🧵👇👇👇👇

@NottArchaeology @rlcjones @ThorotonSociety Not quite Scott - yours has been shortened - the full title (as per proofs) is used inside.

Now’s the time (when isn’t it?) to to think about publishing in @ThorotonSociety Transactions if you have a history/archaeology of Nottinghamshire article. Get in touch with me or @Buildingbod. We’re here to help and advise.
