Have you ever wondered what it’s like to live in a 200+ year old building?? Contact Elaine.Reid@qub.ac.uk to book a spot to hear more from local #Fermanagh designer Cathy McGovern on how she has brought the past into the present in her historic home!
Monday 5 July @ 7.30pm!!
Delighted to be part of this! #lockdownlearning #communityengagement #heritageskills #fermanagh #lougherneheritage
Another great initiative coming from our partners @CDDA_QUB with the @LoughErneLP. #lockdownlearning #heritageathome

Friends, I'm taking a quick look into linguistic origins of poteen/póitín. Lots of reference to the vessel, diminutive póitín 'a small pot', but earlier (Sanas Cormaic 11th century) 'a drink or draught' @eDIL_Dictionary ? Latin 'potio' (drink) cognate with M.E. Potion? Thoughts?
Always a soft spot for 17th c Carrickfergus
@Heri_Hub @UlsterArcSoc
#HeritageOnOurDoorstep makes us think of what’s local. Everywhere is connected to somewhere, and maps of places invite us to take journeys in space as well as time. For a small town, Carrickfergus on Belfast Lough is particularly rich in its historic maps, dating back 500 years.

#MyHeritageWeek gives an excellent opportunity to celebrate the value of historic maps to explore our localities. The Digital Atlas of Derry~Londonderry was created for the 2013 ‘City of Culture’ year by @QUBGeography and @IHTA_RIA and includes a range of maps of the walled city

On today's theme of #HeritageNIErosionErasure, Heritage Hub's Prof Audrey Horning has penned some very thoughtful words on the beauty of erosion regarding artefacts! Great Stuff! #FestivalofArchaeology @NIMuseums #archaeologyunlocked @QUBEngagement
A terrific resource! Honestly, do check out the @PRONI_DFC Historic Map viewer apps.spatialni.gov.uk/PRONIA…

Loved searching out sites using the historic OS maps @PRONI_DFC 🌐 apps.spatialni.gov.uk/PRONIA…, I found the 2nd edition six inch maps show holy wells more so than the 1st edition, keep searching 😁🔎 #HeritageNIHealthMedicine #HeritageNI #festivalofarchaeology

Health & medicine is today's #HeritageNI #FestivalofArchaeology theme. The Survey Group found evidence of iodine production on Chapel Island. An important substance for sterilisation in hospitals. Find out more about iodine and kelp production here qub.ac.uk/sites/uas/UASfiles…

The @Heri_Hub @QUBelfast has a week long #FestivalOfArchaeology (11-19th July) in collaboration with ArchaeologyUK.
The theme for 15th & 16th July is: Rivers & Bogs so HomePlace had to get involved.
