Happy leap day!
New video released on YouTube on the history of the prison library, from my free course on the history of prison education: tinyurl.com/yfkcjyad. youtu.be/dKI2qBXGz44?si…
Behind every great city are the achievements and contributions of women from all walks of life. Sadly, this has not historically been reflected in London’s public spaces. I'm pleased that English Heritage is set to unveil more plaques dedicated to women than ever before.
For the first time in the history of the London Blue Plaque Scheme, more plaques will be unveiled to individual women in 2024 than in any previous year. 🔵 Among these will be a plaque to Christina Broom, who is believed to have been Britain's first female press photographer 📸
Tomorrow - Tuesday 9th. January, 17:30-19:00GMT, live from the IHR in London, @Rosamund_Lil will present on sculptures of children in post-war London County Council housing estates in the context of post-war society, culture and politics. Join us! history.ac.uk/events/sculptu…
This looks to be a very interesting series of online talks on 'Social Housing in the United Kingdom 1840-1990' with an excellent set of speakers (HT @janicemorphet). thebaltrust.org/lectures-2024/
We are pleased to announce the launch of the Girouard Fund for Publications by the SAHGB and Blanche Girouard, in memory of one of Britain’s greatest architectural historians, Mark Girouard (1931- 2022). You can donate now via the shagb website: sahgb.org.uk/sahgb-girouard…
I am delighted and honoured that my book, Illiterate Inmates: Educating Criminals in 19thC England has been awarded the Anne Bloomfield Book Prize from the History of Education Society (@HistEdSocUK) tinyurl.com/3z8du3fv @OUPHistory @OU_FASS @history_ou 1/3
some news - very excited to have joined the @EnglishHeritage London Blue Plaques panel. Have always taken huge pleasure in looking up and seeing who once lived where. A gift that keeps on giving - and a fine way of remembering great lives.

Our final blue plaque of the year is up! 🔵 Two of the leading artists of the radical and influential Bloomsbury Group, Vanessa Bell and Duncan Grant, have been commemorated with a plaque at number 46 Gordon Square in Bloomsbury. 🎨

I’m intrigued by this image of Oxford’s Bullingdon Field Estate in 1928. Surrounded by agricultural land and built for workers at Morris motors. Apparently it became known as Misery Town because so many struggled to keep up their payments: headington.org.uk/history/street…
Very enjoyable talk today on 19th century #ModelDwellings in London, brought me back to PhD days discovering work of J.N. Tarn and others @thebaltrust @rebeccaxpreston /1
Personal heritage news: We bought a c.1930 house and have been renovating it! Very thrilling to base some of the decor and fixtures and fittings on this period- both personally and with my house historian hat on 😀 #HouseHistory #1930s
This looks to be a very interesting series of online talks on 'Social Housing in the United Kingdom 1840-1990' with an excellent set of speakers (HT @janicemorphet). thebaltrust.org/lectures-2024/
Find me on Instagram as historichospitals - just starting to try to get to grips with it.
Fantastic find - thanks!
Spotted at the threshold of Caffè Nero in Golders Green, dating, by the look of it, from the gay and colourful 1950s Might interest @KA_Morrison perhaps [sorry about the bin]?
Commercial Street, round about now.
