A super afternoon exploring the historic footpaths and lanes of south Norfolk with the excellent crew from Waveney Archaeology 💖🥾🥾

Thanks for having me again - great to see you all!

A great morning in the city with our first year exploring the streets and buildings of medieval Norwich

We’ve had a great first day out on site with our fieldwork module students exploring, discussing and surveying earthworks ranging from medieval to 20th century. Some excellent work today in measuring, drawing, interpreting, branch holding and minibus driving.

Exploring the architecture of a medieval parish church today with our third year students, who have done a great building survey inside and out! And a close encounter with this splendid bull in the field next door (who was not at all interested in us)

Call for Papers - The Public Country House: Treasure of Quiet Beauty or a Site for Public Histories? This timely conference will explore the often contested role our historic houses play in society now and in the future. V&A The British Academy National Trust Oliver J.W. Cox

A very very wet day but great to catch up with landscape history colleagues in Nottingham (they are in School of Geography whilst we are in School of History), got to go on a tram! Now unexpectedly stuck by #stormbabet as all trains cancelled 🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️

On my way to the USA for #nacbs23 - our flight is now delayed but I did manage to find the archaeology display in departures 👍

.Royal Historical Society has today issued a statement on the proposed cuts and closures Oxford Brookes in #History & other depts bit.ly/40YVjut These cuts are extensive. They risk the future of staff students, and the very research culture for which Brookes historians are known.

In England for a building to qualify for listing at Grade II it needs to be at least 30 years old. So to mark the end of the year here is my list of 10 buildings that were completed in 1994, so are now eligible. 🧵 (You can see my 1993 list here: x.com/OSaumarezSmith…)

Don’t you just LOVE it when you use your landscape investigation skills and find a lost Roman villa (and later iron works that cuts through the middle of it). 🤓

On Thursday 18 April we at Oxford Brookes University are running a walk, talk and discussion with the Head of Paths at RamblersGB, Jack Cornish! Who'll have a new book out on just that topic. It's all part of our Think Human, and you can sign up here: eventbrite.co.uk/e/the-lost-pat…

Sadly, in the early hours of Tuesday 7 May, Ely Museum was broken into. Thieves stole the East Cambridgeshire gold torc and a gold bracelet, both dating from the Bronze Age. The police are currently investigating the theft. We will be closed to the public on Wednesday 8 May.

Absolutely incredible view from south Norfolk last night
