@medievalfemina.bsky.social
Professor of Medieval Studies, Lincoln, formerly at Canterbury. Passionate about medieval women, queenship, the thirteenth century, English medieval government, medieval aristocratic life styles, medieval records, and Magna Carta. Views my own.
After 26 talks by 27 speakers from across the UK and Australia, and a wonderful trip to our Guildhall to view our 13thC Royal Charters, the 21st Thirteenth Century Conference @LincolnMedieval is a wrap. A massive thanks to all who came - safe travels home.

Beautiful South Kyme, Lincolnshire, home to a church that was part of an Augustinian priory and a splendid 14thC tower. Lincolnshire really is a beautiful place to study the Middle Ages. @lincolnmedieval.bsky.social
