Congratulations Tinashe and Robin! 🎉 who worked together this summer, on a research project funded through the Undergraduate Research Opportunities Scheme - a University of Lincoln initiative that supports students to develop authentic experiences of planning and executing scholarly projects.

Royal visit 👑

We're honoured that lecturer Leah represented our department and the University of Lincoln during HRH The Duke of Edinburgh's visit to Lincoln last week.

One of the highlights of the visit was the Duke's stop at the iconic 'Wonky House' at the junction of Michaelgate and Steep Hill.

On 20 September, LSHH conservationist Leah Warriner-Wood spoke at an event celebrating 200 years since the birth of Charles Frederick Worth, in Bourne, Lincolnshire. Leah's talk, "Threads of History", introduced the role conservators play in preserving the stories that objects tell about the past.

A statement in support of our colleagues in National Trust properties and conservation studios around the country.

Beige text against a burnt orange background reads: As individuals and a team, the academic and technical staff within the University of Lincoln's department of Conservation are shocked and saddened to learn of the redundancies taking place within National Trust conservation studios and properties. The National Trust has been a sector leader in the care and conservation of our shared cultural heritage for generations, and a beacon to which our students look for inspiration, guidance, and experience. We are concerned for what the cuts may mean for emerging professionals and the conservation sector, but we send our heartfelt thanks to each and every National Trust colleague - past and present - who has supported us in our educational and research aims over the years. We are standing with you in solidarity, as one conservation community. October 2025.
