What a fab opportunity!

Another great project developed by the Centre for Public History at QUB

This is a beautiful song. Lay your flags and titles down Take your place in this common ground 💚

When I try to explain what I do as a heritage practitioner, it is a bit nebulous- varies from project to project, but it’s about giving voice to the voiceless. This project brought that to my own front door. Remembrance belongs to us. youtu.be/3i6-cHvtP6c?...

Excellent short film telling a story of forgotten local history. Very promising start to a project and account worth following.

When I mentioned the subject matter of this excellent film to a few local wise old heads last night they were like..yep, we know this. That's why it's so important that an under-told story is being introduced to new audiences. Worth a watch.

Our short film about the Great Hunger in Newtownards. There are Bully’s Acres all over Ireland – mass graves, where victims of an Gorta Mór and harsh workhouse regimes lie buried. ‘The Forgotten Famine’ is about one of them, in a quiet corner of County Down… www.heartsofdown.org/work/the-for...

This is our first newsletter from Belfast Street Names, it is really fun project to be part of and we are always keen to crowd source local knowledge and invite everyone into the conversation, so please feel free to get in touch www.belfaststreetnames.com/uploads/file...

Watch this space! Not long to go until the first treat!

We are making things. Some of them will be ready soon :) Films, podcasts, essays, conversations. Stories from the County Down underground.

Allotmenting! Peas, beans, potatoes, all coming on well. And Twiggy my elder tree might be a few years yet before they’re big enough to help me make wine or keep the devil away!

3 months in and the allotment is starting to look less like a mud bath.

Looking forward to this! I loved her Rejuvenation trilogy!

My offer to share ‘my Irish’ with Claire in her brilliant article here comes full circle as last Christmas’s dna tests show me, her and her da share the same ancestor 😂

I heard it’s nicer over here.
