Very proud of my PhD student, @isobelgrimley.bsky.social for her successful @pintofscience.uk talk on medieval childhood frailty at Bradford's Theatre in the Mill last week. 👏 @bradarch.bsky.social @uniofbradford.bsky.social @bradford2025.co.uk

NB: a replica skeleton was used for this event.

From the 12th century, the monks of Birkenhead Priory would ferry passengers across the River Mersey. I wonder what they’d think of this mighty sea vessel docked alongside the Priory today 🛳️ 😮 #wirral #medieval #monastic
