Some VAG members stayed on in Ulster for the Historic Farm Buildings Group conference which followed #VAGspringconf2024. A big thank you to Dr Duncan Berryman @ArchaeologistD who did a marvellous job in organising both conferences! @FarmBuildings

The final visit of #VAGspringconf2024 - Cockle Row, Groomsport, a pair of fisherman's cottages built at right angles to the sea for shelter from storms. A huge thank you to Dr Duncan Berryman @ArchaeologistD and his colleagues for organising a brilliant conference!

Day 1 of the @VArchGroup conference in Ulster done. Great the visit @NTCastleWard and Ballydugan Mill. Lots of great discussions about the date of the tower house.

You may be unsurprised to learn that, yes, I have always been a mediaeval buildings nerd. Here I am, aged 13, at White Ladies Priory (Shrops).
If you'd like to hear more about my career in buildings archaeology, I'll be doing an online talk tomorrow:

It's bleakly depressing that about 70-80% of being a historian of medieval Scotland is reassuring colleagues & the general public alike that things weren't all just relentlessly shit here.
Medieval Scottish agricultural practice has traditionally been characterised by inefficiency and failure.
But was there in fact more responsiveness to the challenges of climate and weather than we've previously thought? Learn more on 31 May: bit.ly/Rhinds2024

Communities Minister @gordonlyons1 officially opened a new shared space public archive in Belfast this week, bringing together thousands of years of history and heritage in NI.
HERoNI has co-located with @PRONI_DFC in a purpose built archive centre in the Titanic Quarter.

Tomorrow's online talk will look at the archaeology of staircases. They are not just a way to access different floors in a house but tell us lots about social history and attitudes of the times they were used.

This is possibly the oldest illuminated manuscript at the British Library
Papyrus 3053, dating sometime between the 3rd and 6th century CE, shows a scene from the arena, with a bear and the legs of an acrobat
