I had a fantastic day working from the Tower of London earlier this week. This is the view as you step out of the building where the HRP curators are based

I’m currently undertaking a curatorial research placement with Historic Royal Palaces examining the Needham volumes. Tudor building accounts which detail works at Royal properties between 1532-1544. As well as building history they are rich with insights into the private lives of Tudor Royals 🏰 👑

I am passionate about the history of London with a particular interest in its development during the Early Modern period. In addition to the Inns of Court and Chancery, I have given papers on and guided tours of Hampstead, its spa era and ensuing development.
