OUT TODAY! Allotment Tapes #4 - St Anns In The Countryside (with Mo Cooper) is out today via my Bandcamp. Aprils tape meets with community historian (and gardener) Mo Cooper.. formerly the heritage officer at STAA, now retired but keeps getting 'dragged back to the allotments as volunteer'.

Had a great time at last night's Evening Rambles artists workshop with #ScientificRambles - thanks to everyone who came and got involved. Also cheers to Iain for grabbing this little time lapse of some stone-drone action 🪨

Did you know the Peak District National Park is 75 today? To help celebrate, here is a great photo of a sunset at Stanage from their image archive. This shot is one of many thousands being catalogued by the #LandscapesUnlocked project. Will your favourite view be in the archive? #PeakDistrict75

The new Akai MPC Sample looks great, but @muzines.bsky.social has come to the rescue today with some retrospective reading from 1986... www.muzines.co.uk/articles/aka...

Experimenting with hand-colouring pinhole photos with watercolours. I‘m terrible and impatient with painting, but it‘s turned the forest into something else and I quite like that.

Went to Tatton Park today and had a nice nosey - intrigued by these parchmarks however, can't find them on any old maps - newish or old? Sure someone here will know! No sign of them on the ground now...

Made my way up to the Pikestones earlier today, a chambered cairn up on the moors north of Bolton - it's been on my list for a while and didn't disappoint (though the information sign did) 🪨

A clip from 'Untitled Film'- part of 'The Wild Between', the latest #ScientificRambles exhibition at the Silk Museum in Macclesfield. The film is a short collection of processed Sony Handycam footage, shot around the #PeakDistrict in the last 6 months. 🪨 www.thesilkmuseum.co.uk/calendar/sci...

More wanderings coming up in the next MTN mailout, plus a free download and a link to stream the latest pieces created for our recent exhibition... Sign up here 🪨 - mailchi.mp/cd9f09388b7e...

Collection of stones in the gardens of Hopton Hall - tried to find out about them but was met with confusion 🪨

Thanks to everyone who came down for the launch of 'The Wild Between' last night at the Silk Museum, it was great to chat to everyone and share some thoughts and ideas. The exhibition runs until the 16th May, Wednesday to Saturday. #ScientificRambles

'The Wild Between' opens this Saturday at the Silk Museum in Macclesfield - with work by Iain Davidson, Ailsa Holland, Becca Smith and myself. 🪨 www.thesilkmuseum.co.uk/whats-on @derbyshirearch.bsky.social @chesterarchsoc.bsky.social @staffsarch.bsky.social #ScientificRambles #ThreeShires

Loving the 'Web Rewind' created by @operabrowser.bsky.social today! Nice to have something genuinely fun to do after a software update - www.web-rewind.com/2002

Is #mapMonday still a thing..? Regardless - here's an interesting little spot just north of Bradwell in the #PeakDistrict along part of the Roman road heading from Buxton to the fort at Brough. Intrigued by the 'Site Of Eden Tree' ? @derbyshirearch.bsky.social (map from @natlibscot.bsky.social )

Got to be good if Tony is endorsing it!

Not long till this opens over at the Silk Museum! Fans of old stones, old paths and old places within the Three Shires this is for you. @chesterarchsoc.bsky.social @derbyshirearch.bsky.social @stoneclub.bsky.social

Always good to see the remains of an old doorway or window stratified within later additions to a building! This is the south side of the Church Of The Holy Cross in Ilam.

Had a fantastic time yesterday getting to know the Ilam Hall estate better - a stunning location with the extra bonus of a @nationaltrust.org.uk cafe ☕

This is great! Some nicely captured sounds in and around the Records Office too (almost a bit of a Stone Tape vibe at times!) 🗂️

Excited to be a part of the next #ScientificRambles exhibition at the Silk Museum in March - new work by Iain Davidson, Ailsa Holland, Becca Smith and myself. 🪨 'The Wild Between' opens on March 21st and runs until May 16th.

I had a great time last night at The Peer Hat as part of the Manchester Folk Horror event - it was my first time performing #MegalithicTransportNetwork pieces live, and it was lovely to have such a friendly and supportive crowd 🪨

Off to Manchester today to inflict some #MegalithicTransportNetwork sounds upon the participants at The Peer Hat for Manchester Folk Horror 2026 🪨

Following some old tracks today...

A few of my photos from a fab time at Derbyshire Archaeology Day 2026 in Chesterfield. Full of fantastic talks, great archaeology chats between speakers, and the infamous Colin Merrony book stall! January 2027 seems a long way off! Maybe some sort of Summer heritage social is in order? #archaeology

Great to be at Derbyshire Archaeology Day earlier - lots of passionate folks sharing their work, and plenty of food for thought. Nice to see some friendly faves too!

The Anchor Church, Foremark - a former hermit's cave with possible Anglo-Saxon origins (there is a legendary link with St Eardwulf, a deposed Northumbrian king/hermit who died in 830). Later repurposed (18C) as a dining-room-with-a-view for Foremark Hall! her.derbyshire.gov.uk/Monument/MDR...

Very excited to receive my copy of 'Listening To Landscape' by Phil Hubbard - Phil interviewed me to talk about the work on my Megalithic Transport Network project - lots of great insight into some fantastic artists here, well worth a nosey.

One for #standingstoneSunday - unknown stone, Birchen Edge, November 2025. @megalithic.bsky.social @stoneclub.bsky.social #PeakDistrct #oldstone

Some moody snaps from a trip on the Hope Valley line yesterday, Grindslow Knoll and Win Hill in the distance...

Nice little zine delivery today from Witchcult Now - 'Superia Visions Vol. 2' - some fantastic 35mm photography and old stones, lovely stuff!

Wonderful find!

The ridge and furrow at #Tissington was looking fantastic today. #Derbyshire #PeakDistrict #Medieval
