Christmas wreath making was so much fun this year at the Walled Garden School in #Hawarden, #NorthWales 🍊🌲 All the foliage was foraged locally #UKGardening 🌱

Very proud of the work we do with the YAC 🏺🤩

Booking for our dig in 2026 is now live! Check it out through our blog bamburghresearchproject.wordpress.com/2025/11/29/w...

Tropical in #Belfast #GardeningUK 🌱🌺

Today's foraging..... #autumn #dryflowers #UKgardening 🌱

The most amazing early medieval tripartite: Lindisfarne, Ad Gefrin and Bamburgh 🤩

Fantastic to have @littlebonelady.bsky.social with us at #Bamburgh Castle. I always learn something new 🤩🏺 #zooarchaeology

Fun in the sun 🌞🌞🌞

It's that time of year again. I'm #Bamburgh bound for the @brparchaeology post-excavation week. Let's hope the weather God's are kind and the #archaeology is on form 🤩🏺

Come and join us next week, for a day, a few days or more! 👇👇👇 🏺🏺🏺

Seed collecting. This time it's sunflowers for next year 🌻🌱 #gardening #flowers #gardeningUK

A great opportunity anyone aged 16 to 21 looking to get into archaeology, designed by the @archaeologyuk.bsky.social Youth Advisory Board - designed by young people, for young people!

That's a wrap on the 2025 #FestivalOfArchaeology🏺. Extra special to celebrate it in my home town of #Bradford with family and friends. Huge thank you to Photoworks & our fantastic 'My Heritage' artists who joined us for the weekend to celebrate their work exploring #archaeology and #photography ⛏️📸

Sweet William's from seed. I wasn't expecting them to flower this year 🤩 #gardening #gardeninguk #flowers 🇬🇧🌱

Calling all 16-21 year-olds.......

Today we launch the My Heritage online exhibition with our friends at Photoworks, funded by the @HeritageFundUK It's probably my favourite project I've been involved with lately as it was so great to tap into my creative side and explore #archaeology🏺 from a fresh perspective. #photography 📸

Lots going on today celebrating and platforming young people in the heritage sector ⬇️⬇️⬇️🏺

It might be drizzly today but the flowers are loving it #gardening #gardensky #nofilter #roses

Looking forward to the photowalk in #Bradford this Sunday. It's free and easy to book 👇👇👇 🏺📸

It's been a busy busy day at Chester House Estate exploring archaeology and wellbeing for this year's #FestivalOfArchaeology. We had loads of fun and learnt a few things along the way. @dfrearson.bsky.social turned me into Building Detective 🕵️‍♀️ with her great activity. Till next year....

😅🐑🐏

I'm back again (sorry 😅)..... #AskAnArchaeologist Day! is still going strong. I'd love to know where your interest in #archaeology might take you outside the UK. Mine includes jungles 🌿

What got me into #archaeology? More from #AskAnArchaeologist Day! 🏺

We found a dead woodcock on the roof of a City block, it had followed the Thames and got worn out according to RSPB 🙁 Our faunal specialist took it home to bury in his garden. #AskAnArchaeologist #FestivalOfArchaeology

Who would have guessed that the main theme emerging from this question was .... birds (alive and some not so alive 😅) @archaeologyuk.bsky.social #AskAnArchaeologist Day!

One for @romanpalace.bsky.social but when I was digging there as a schoolgirl in the mid 1990s there was a guy with a hawk that used to sit by the trench. Or did I imagine that?

It's #AskAnArchaeologist Day part of the @archaeologyuk.bsky.social #FestivalOfArchaeology. My question is: what's the best/worst/weirdest thing you have come home with after a dig? 🤔 I'll start..... a volunteer bought me a cutting of a framberry plant. It's 7, survived a house move and a flood!

Grown from seed sweet peas 😍🌱 #gardening #smallwins

This is my little person. Proud Mummy moment 🤩

Dusted off the pencils and made the most of a sunny lunchtime ✏️

Bodnant Garden @nationaltrust.org.uk blew my socks 🧦 off yesterday. The trees were something else 🌳🌲

A rescue, a cutting, a surprise and a gift. Treats from the new(ish) garden 🪏🌱🏡 #gardening #flowers #foxglove #lupin #roses

Today we're in Hawarden to start our #OutandAboutArchaeology with @archaeologyuk.bsky.social We're off to explore Hawarden Castle and it's estate lands 🏰 #NorthWales 🧵1/
