    @ivan_t_dog and I feature in the first slide at the Hexham History Society's first presentation of the season. 🤩

    Just a preliminary report on the test pits they did last year (including two in our garden). They're still working on the findings, full report to follow.

  17. Wondering (not really asking—I'll find it) where the page is to send corrections to the OED.

  22. Bronze Age bowl barrow on Upper Hollesley Common, Suffolk. These are the most numerous type of round barrow and up to 10,000 recorded nationally and no doubt many more lost. This area is rich in archaeological remains, with the famous Sutton Hoo nearby and several other bowl barrows. Not to mention the UFO’s in Rendlesham Forest. #history #bronzeage #archeology
