The Mounts were also Lords of the manor of Henwick (and others), the Tulls (Crookham), neither noted. Am I missing something? Am I wrong? Henwick & Crookham were never combined (that I am aware of). A bit of my research at nickbits.co.uk/blog/2017/07... / nickbits.co.uk/blog/2023/10... (2/2)

Would like to try out some Honeycomb coatings at some point in the future. 3/3

Will give them a bit longer to try before saying which I prefer (lens wise). Case wise though, both @specsaversuk.bsky.social and Glasses Direct use recycled materials so thumbs up there. I will sling them in my backpack so the Specsavers case comes out on top. 2/3

In mean time see where the name #Thatcham comes from www.youtube.com/watch?v=1U9j... (thanks to @sogorg.bsky.social ) 3/3

As more archaeology (reports) has become available I have become more convinced that Saxon Thatcham lay just to the south west of the church, with possibly a bit extending northwards. I will write a new version of the post with the updated evidence and a map. 2/3

Fantastic, looking forward to both this year and full return next year. Appreciate all the effort, it is much appreciated and very much enjoy watching/reading the materials.

Not been for a while but like Devon, some very nice walks and history. So much history in Thatcham, sadly loosing a lot of the historic landscape over the last few decades, guess like most places! I do occasionally do online (#Thatcham) history talks too.

Plenty of other events on too. Thatcham Historical Society will be in the St Marys with a display of various materials, Thatcham Town Council will be unveiling another blue plaque and much more. See ticketpass.org/o/57776337/t... for more details.

Indeed got a growing list around this time of those put in both #Newbury and #Thatcham stocks and a few in #Greenham and #Donnington and #Speenhamland.
