Kent Graffiti Survey

The KMGS are surveying again, two very feint figures part of todays finds at Barham.

As part of the @nationaltrust celebration #Bodiam100 I will be leading two very special evening tours of the historic graffiti at @BodiamCastleNT on July 27th and 28th. These are ticket only events, so booking is essential. nationaltrust.org.uk/visit/sussex/b…

Ship graffiti at Rochester Cathedral, a veritable harbour of ships if you search hard enough.

The door has over 50 carvings, including initials, a ship, and even some macabre depictions of hangings. What would you etch to leave your mark? 🖋️

Have you heard about our latest find? 🚪🔍 A newly discovered door, dating to around the 1790's has been found in St John's Tower during our preparations for the ‘Dover Castle Under Siege’ experience that opens in July.

It is #Halloween, so I'm again getting my retaliation in early... What is a 'Witch Mark'? You can read more about 'real' witch marks here - historyofmassachusetts.org/witches-mark/ #witchmark

Back to @KnoleNT last week to finally finish up some of the graffiti surveys. It's only been ten years... Fantastic light in the Orangery, and a 6 petal rosette lurking beneath the pigment. Must post-date the 1820s - so very late indeed!
