A smorgasbord of early modern goodness has now gone live on @LonJournal. Best of all, it's open access!
First up is @Ed_Legon's brilliant analysis of the attempts of the Clothworkers' to recoup unpaid contributions to the 1658 & 1662 Lord Mayors' shows

That's all for today folks! Two fantastic sessions with brilliant @HistoryGold & @UCLHistory students exploring historic London on foot. Educational and fun, as history should be! We'll be out and about again in 2 weeks, exploring Charles Booth's Deptford. #walkinghistory
Current Bevis Marks Synagogue (in the background) in case you missed it; shame the passageway is closed for building works. #lhtl2018
Things have changed a bit around here... less livestock and only the occasional archer now #lhtl2018
Second group of @HistoryGold & @UCLHistory history students have set off into the city with only John Strype's map of Aldgate to guide them! Sun is shining, it's a great day for #walkinghistory #lhtl2018
Interesting sculpture of a traditional English grain store,in 'rose tinted' steel to represent 'rose tinted' views of the past. Nothing rose-tinted about what we're doing today: we're out and about doing it in the streets! (so to speak) #lhtl2018
Back in the City again for my Walking Through London's History module @HistoryGold. The students have just set off in groups using Stow's survey and Strype's map to navigate round Aldgate Ward. Some will be tweeting via #lhth2018 as they go! #walking #history
