Throwback to a trip to Carrowkeel to visit a rather spectacular group of tombs (and to the last time I'll ever crawl inside one!) 💀 #TombTuesday

When I'm not busy moonlighting as an archaeologist I get to work with some amazing researchers in the field of science communication.

Our most recent work looks at communicating about the issue of microplastic pollution in the marine environment!

Great to have had the opportunity to promote Digital Heritage Age's ongoing work on recording the Sheela-na-Gig tradition in Ireland.

Thanks as always to the stellar team at Tuatha for championing the range of archaeological and historical research going on across the country :)

Took a detour through Mayo on the way back from Co. Sligo recently so I could catch a glimpse of this beautiful stained glass work in St Mary's, Ballinrobe.
