Today we visited #Tewkesbury and witnessed the fabulously #reenacted and hilariously commentated #BattleOfTewkesbury - it was pretty fabulous to behold, actually. ⚔️
I have much admiration for everyone who partook as #reenactors and vendors around the festival grounds. 🛡️ What a day! I love the detail that goes into events like these.
I work in the #DigitalLibraries area of HE managing library and research systems #LeedsBeckett Am also a #PhD #researcher #mixedmethods looking into virtual & physical study space & place in #academiclibraries , outside of work I have #labradors , drink #tea and I'm involved in #HistoricalReenactment #reenactors (ecws.org.uk)Much of what I do with #IronAge #Gold involves working with #goldsmiths & #craftspeople & thanks to this I know some of the best!
My torc-partner-in-crime, Roll Williamson, isn't on here, but he makes incredible #replicas for #Reenactors #museums or private #commissions. His #website is below...
Would also #recommend wonderful friends @PottedHistory @sallypointer @JamesDilley for truly excellent #archaeological replicas, talks, classes etc...
