I'm speaking @IHR_LateMed this Friday on Richard Edgcombe's official #Tudor visit to #Ireland in 1488. Expect bits of a grumpy travel diary, papal bulls, excommunication threats, pirates, & a failed experiment with #HenryVII's bonds and recognisances: history.ac.uk/events/sir-ric…

Still time to book for tomorrow's Mary Rose 40th anniversary history lectures & discussion. A great programme follows on the impact of the excavation & the efforts to raise the ship. See the full listing at maryrose.org/anniversary-lec… @MaryRoseMuseum @MaryRoseLearn @MaryRoseSupport
For @IMC_Leeds 2023 @UkNatArchives medievalists are keen to talk about archival research, history & links between collections knowledge & 'discoveries'. Get in touch with @pablodiablo74, @euanroger or me to share your ideas for the proposed sessions (by 15 Sept). #CFP #medieval
An amazing weekend - honoured to speak as part of #Portugal_UK650 & to spend time with the excellent @ukinportugal team in @CM_Braga & @MunicipioVizela celebrating the long history of the alliance first agreed at #Tagilde in 1372.
All are welcome at the exhibition of young Sam Cunningham's fabulous illustrations for the Flea in History book series @WoodfieldPav on #Tooting Common from 8-30 July. A launch party for the latest title from @reading_riddle, Vlad and the Roman Triumph, is on 8 July, 4-8pm. 👍🍾
ALT Sam Cunningham's illustration of three Roman soldiers looking at Vlad the Flea. The largest figure wears a lionskin and has a facemask. The other two are in familiar Roman armour. The poster provides details of the exhibition of Sam's art at The Woodfield Pavilion on Tooting Common from 8th to 30th July. A book launch for Vlad's latest adventure, Vlad and the Roman Triumph, will be held there on Friday 8 July from 4pm to 8pm.

In #Greenwich this afternoon, @TrinityLaban with @WhoIsJohnBlanke, @michael1952 & distinguished guests for @NubianJak Blue Plaque unveiling for John Blanke, 510 years since his wedding on the same site. Brilliant!
Hopefully a little bit more detail to appear soon...
Sean Cunningham @SeanC1509 makes perhaps a game changing discovery in @UkNatArchives leading to the question - Are the 1507 #JohnBlanke (sic) Trumpeter and 1488 John Blank (sic) Footman one and the same person ? And writes about it for #JohnBlankeProject johnblanke.com/sean-cunningh…
Well done @euanroger for a brilliant Bond lecture at St George’s Chapel, Windsor, this evening. @UkNatArchives @UkNatArcRes #medieval
What happened to James IV's body after his death at #Flodden #otd 1513? £12 9s 10d paid for 'seryng ledyng & sawdryng of the dede course' & transporting it to York & Windsor. More details in Surrey's (now lost) 'boke of parcelles' and a bill of costs @UkNatArchives E 101/56/27.
