Fantastic workshop with Patrick Murphy at Worsbrough Mill @barnsleymuseums.bsky.social I learned such a lot about Worsbrough: the tram! The cricket bat factory! The gunpowder factory! All history is local, as they say.

Seymour’s current plan to get treats. Part a. Steal something that isn’t his
Part b. Make sure I know he’s got it then hide.
Part c. Only be tempted out when there’s a treat and swap thing he shouldn’t have for it.
Part d. Repeat

Good morning to all our new followers! (Thank you so much @themerl.bsky.social)
Is there much snow where you are? It was very short lived here in Barnsley unlike in 1933 - Before you ask, no that isn't us using photoshop, someone decided to go to the market in Penistone while it was snowing ❄️

We have wanted to post this for ages but we thought we'd never get to 13,000 friends but look at that - we have!
The Hall when it was built between 1357 and 1361 was built like a giant flat pack - every piece of wood was numbered for ease of assembly.
This particular section is 'IIIX' - 13. 😍

Mother bought this for Dad as a silly gift. However, they don't know I've decided it's mine once my dining room is sorted.
