This week at The National Archives Revolution 250 exhibition I was humbled to see one of the few remaining Dunlap Broadside Declarations of Independence. Amazing what significance you can fit (nearly) onto one side of A4.

This beautiful collaboration between Liberty. and Imperial War Museums with Nazanin Zaghari-Ratcliffe has resulted in three gorgeous prints highlighting the importance of creativity in conflict and confinement. Hanging outside and inside the museum they are a credit to our dedicated team.

Back from a weekend in Leicester for the Vernacular Architecture Group winter conference. Amused during Joe Thompson's paper to learn that 60-odd years ago poor Reg Mason was coming up against all the same old tall tales about historic buildings in his book on Wealden architecture!

Fifteenth-century house from North Cray, Kent, at the Weald & Downland Museum. Its elm timbers were originally painted red. Mounting evidence shows medieval timbers were often painted with natural hematite-even this finely carved wainscot post made for Henry VII had a similarly painted red ground.

Interior of a reconstructed medieval house, a timber frame with discoloured plaster infill, shutters instead of window glass to the right.

Exterior of a red and white painted medieval house with a plain tile roof.

Lucky to combine a meeting @westdeancollege with a tour of Salvador Dali’s Mae West Lips Sofa, his celebrated Lobster telephone and the dancer Tilly Losch’s ‘wet’ footprints in the carpet. All part of Edward James’ fabulous collection.
