Lovely end to the semester - hearing fieldwork stories from @peterrmartin.bsky.social @lauraloubio.bsky.social and other colleagues from the School of Geography (not on this site). Now time for mince pies, Christmas music and not checking my emails until January… 🎄

You do not need to be an academic to visit an archive. You do not need a degree to visit an archive. There is no terrifying Don at the door grilling potential visitors. If it's your first time, a nice archivist will help you. It's our shared history, our preserved records. Go explore it.

Trying out a new site - I’m a historical geographer working on 19th and 20th century engineering (primarily of rivers, oceans & water more broadly). Interested in science, knowledge & expertise.
