We were delighted to be involved in Britain’s #HistoricTowns with @theAliceRoberts early this year. Exploring Elizabethan #Plymouth, it’s sure to be a fascinating delve into our city’s history. It airs tomorrow at 7pm on Channel 4 and will be available to catch up on All 4.

Walked the first leg of the ancient perambulation of the boundary of the Forest of Dartmoor yesterday. 12 tough miles, but stunning. Celebrating Dartmoor history on foot. Looking forward to the next leg in this the 780th anniversary year

MEET THE FIGUREHEADS: At over 4m tall and weighing over 2.5 tonnes, Royal William is the heaviest object we've moved into The Box. This figure of King William IV, dressed in the ceremonial robes of the Order of the Garter, was made in 1833. #TheBoxPlymouth #Plymouth

2.5 million men from India served in the British Indian Army in WW2 conflicts across the world. Won gallantry medals and George Crosses. Auchinleck (Com in Chief) said Britain couldn’t have got through war without them. And yet still so often forgotten #VEDay #VEDay2020

Taste a slice of history with the @nationaltrust & make one of Winston Churchill's favourite cakes. The recipe was crafted by Mrs Landermare, who Churchill said 'he could not have managed throughout the war without her cooking'! #VEDay75 ow.ly/fTBI50zzXbb
