1/3 Vintage postcards to enjoy. @UoEHeritageColl archive has some wonderful images we’re sharing to mark our centenary. #ExeterLaw100 Before Streatham, law student life was in the heart of Gandy Street #Exeter. This postcard(1 of 24) was sold to raise money for new buildings.

Some unusual visitors in #ExeterCathedral. Today we were visited by Harry and George for their familiarisation visit ahead of this year's nativity to help them get used to being in the Cathedral. 🦙Harry and George are therapy llamas and are looked after by animal experts.
