This beautifully embossed photograph album belonging to the Harpur Crewe family of Calke Abbey contains charming portraits of the family with their pets during the late 19th century. They were clearly well loved by the family, though perhaps one was overdue at the groomers!🐶

Thank you for helping us help the disabled, different, and 'difficult' kitties of Nottingham and beyond, often when no one else would. Seeing the difference in a kitty who thought there was no hope ...

Ancient rock art was meant to be heard as well as seen and now acoustic archaeologists are bringing the sounds of prehistoric rituals to life
We can finally hear the long-hidden music of the Stone Age

Happy anniversary to the Max Headroom incident, the greatest example of signal hijacking.

It’s been a while since the last CHAPBOOK TUESDAY post.

This beautiful example is from the 1810 edition of Red Riding Hood held by @britishlibrary.bsky.social

What makes this unusual are the colour images. These would have been hand painted in each copy, usually by women or children

Happy "Leaves is Plants, Dumbass"iversary to those who celebrate
“hey hangman you promised us pics of plants, this is just a bunch of leaves what gives?” newsflash dumbass, leaves IS plants. leaves provide winter shelter for insects like lightning bugs and butterflies, fertilize the soil, and are a pain in the ass to move anyway so just leave them where you can

If you're wondering how our week is going, one of our team just looked at this section of an OS map and went "Wow, that's a weird shaped lake!"

It's the letter 'I' in 'Buckinghamshire'.

I had a little wander around Holy Trinity Church this morning. I occasionally walk through the beautiful church grounds but I've never been inside the church before. I was fortunate enough to be treated to a private tour by Ivor, the church warden.
