A visit to a new place! Llanidloes, Powys, not far from Newtown. Very interesting as it seems so little changed architecturally. An amazing number of shops still trading - which was so wonderful to see!

Some interesting sights from Bridgnorth, Shrops. The house where the great Thomas Telford lived in 1792 and some shopfronts. Beaman’s butchers sadly closed for good just last month, but hopefully another butcher will take it on!

Fantastic news!! My thoughts in today's Telegraph on the government's decision to reverse plans to destroy millions of historic wills! "Historic wills saved for the nation as plans to destroy old records are cancelled" 👇 #history #archives www.telegraph.co.uk/news/2025/01...

Colchester - a town with many and varied architectural highlights! Here are just a few. I was especially fascinated by the metal rings marking/commemorating the gun shots to the Siege House.

Just stumbled upon this great 1937 film showing how one used to get birth certs. Well before my time, but do remember lugging those massive index volumes off the shelves at St Catherine’s House & Family Records Centre. #Geneaology #FamilyHistory @agragenealogy.bsky.social youtu.be/Q-B8DqKNq-4?...

On this day, 27 December, in 1932, Radio City Music Hall was completed as part of the larger development of Rockefeller Center. We’re sometimes asked if the Isokon is art deco (it’s not). Radio City Music Hall is, however, an excellent example of art deco. www.nypap.org/preservation...
