Watching the final episode of #Victoria and remembering the lovely day I had at Queen Victoria’s holiday home @EHOsborneHouse earlier this week 💜

🎥 Have just seen there’s going to be a new film on Peterloo released soon. So glad to see that one of the biggest massacres in this country against pro-democracy protests is going to be covered and dramatised! #Peterloo

Today we celebrate 100 years since Stonehenge was gifted to the nation by Cecil and Mary Chubb. This set in motion a programme of care and conservation which continues to this day, that all began with the bang of a gavel at an auction three years earlier eht.social/2CGGQtW
Anglo-Saxon Kings still have some of my favourite names throughout history. If you want to find out more about this period of history, have a read of #LondonInaWeek and turn to the pages on Kingston, which is where Saxon Kings used to be crowned! 👑
