After starting this project in 2022, I can finally post that I have co-authored a paper with Ryan Lavelle of @WinchesterHist titled: Realising Multiphase Archaeological Reconstruction Models: 3D Printing the Old Minster, Winchester, doi.org/10.1016/j.daach.2024…

Delighted to have joined @HArchivesTrust for the latest episode of their podcast. If you are interested in imprinting and having your own copy of Hyde Abbey's seal, head over to @WinchesterHods and check out when @Hyde900org are holding their Seal Making Workshop next month! – at Billington, England

I'm so happy to have finally completed and delivered his 3D reconstruction of medieval Clarendon Palace for the Friends of Clarendon Palace. If you ever see talks about Clarendon Palace advertised you should go and hear more about the history of the site! @ClarendonPalace – at Billington, England

I'm pleased to announce that my essay on Bindon Abbey in Dorset and its relationship with local society in the early fourteenth century has won the Mansel-Pleydell Essay Competition, awarded by the Mansel-Pleydell & Cecil Memorial Trust.

The extent to which data is exportable from @UkNatArchives, plus their open design assets, is amazing. Here, I'm using the data to visualise manorial documents in Dorset interactively.

Very cool to find a depiction of Henry VIII on a letters patent (re)founding a monastery in 1538, slap bang in the middle of the monasteries being closed! – at Old Basing, England

Great to attend the 15th century conference this year at Durham. Fascinating papers and what a place to have it! – at Cosgrove, England

Now *that* is a sign of a good trip to the @UkNatArchives – at Camden Town, London

It takes too many clicks to access the search of @UkNatArchives, so I created this Chrome extension, which is super handy!

Amazing to find a Newbury wooden 'bedstead' grave marker in Arlesey, Beds., 153 years on and still legible! – at Aylesbury, England

I can't be the only one who uses the nose to focus their phone's camera in an archive ... or unroll a document, weight it, and tell it "stay" ... surely not... – at Dorchester, England

Planning a multi-day archival research trip feels like my own Operation Neptune. Choosing big docs or small docs to see first is my version of choosing which beach to land on.

Short piece I recently wrote for @SeWISEseals newsletter about the importance of unintentional additional seal impressions. Can find the new newsletter here: sewise.org/newsletters.html

...that's not medieval...🚀 – at Key Largo, FL

I am very appreciative to have been elected as a Postgraduate Member of @RoyalHistSoc today!!📚📚

Belated post about a brief trip down to Dorset (with a yhorough itinerary of church visits), managing to see Dorset in the snow! – at Aylesbury, England

With now 6 library/archive cards in my wallet, my railcard is taking longer and longer to find – at Aylesbury, England
