Some excellent articles in The London Journal's 50th issue.

Particularly enjoyed Nur Sobers-Khan and Shahed Saleem's article on the vernacular architecture of London mosques. Some fascinating reflections on the thought proccess behind Saleem's co-curated V&A pavillion at the Venice Bienalle, 2021

Since starting my PhD I've been trying to make sesne of a difficult moment in Smithfield's history- the porters' march for Powell in '68. This article is the result.

So excited to see it out in the world- couldn't have hoped for a better place for publication @historywo.bsky.social

Thoroughly enjoyed the @vittles.bsky.social cookbook sunday suppliment www.vittlesmagazine.com/p/too-many-c...

Ruby Tandoh's whistlestop history of influential british cookbooks is fab.

And great to see Jonathon Meades up to his miserable old tricks again...
