Some English language articles are out by this morning, although no new info yet about the extent of the damage:

I love the Victorian Hall at Dorchester Museum. I remember when it was the main exhibition area, crowded with stuff from the museum’s collection, before the big rebuild, but prefer it now with the focus on the cast iron frame and arches, not forgetting those amazing Roman mosaics.

Hoping to find some of my fellow museum, history and archaeology peeps here.

The lovely @rachelcleves has set up the #histodons # for historians, so am going to see if something like #UKMuseums gets some traction :-)

Instead of tweets, apparently we 'noot' or 'awoo' which I find hilarious, so here's a few hashtags to play with - Awoo! 😂
