And yes, it's who you think it is on the old bluesky :D Did you enjoy the visit to your old stomping grounds?

Glad you enjoyed it Beth!

I feel celebratory curry would be apt!

Shamlessly dropping in the booking link bradford-district-museums-and-galleries.arttickets.org.uk/cliffe-castl....

Saving the best for last, if we do say so ourselves :)

we can't wait for your talk with us next month!

We may be a tad excited for the talks!

Ooh, oatcakes sounds declicious! Hi Esme! And yay we've found you over here too @archaeologyuk.bsky.social - it's great finding all our old pals all over again!

We were so pleased to be able to make this happen!

See, snazzy....

We also have his Court Suit in our collection. As in the one he wore to be presented to Queen Victoria, rather than one he wore to a *legal* court

Well, absolutely!

But here's the hirstute Sir Isaac Holden - as a middle aged man, and a much older, white-bearded gentleman!

He did a lot of work to improve woolcombing etc - you can see examples of his technology at our Industrial Museum.

(He lived in Oakworth, Keighley - not far from our Cliffe Castle)
