ChesterArchSoc If you get your skates on and have lunch, there's still time to come to my talk on the origins of #Chester's Rows in the Town Hall at 3:00 this afternoon. It's in the Assembly Room, so plenty of space!

One thing Iβve learnt today about local history is the more I think I know, the more I find there is to know - a whole glorious rabbit-warren of stuff, in fact, like the CWAC Museums objects described by curators Poppy & Jessie in their fascinating Q&A today #chesterideas 1/3



Last day of #chesterideas aptly full of ideas. Julian Baum & evidence for a Roman weir; then teaching workshop for the Chester historical map. Came away jabbering excitedly TY β¦β¦University of Chesterβ© β¦Thomas Picklesβ© β¦Katherine Wilsonβ© for another great festival of Ideas
