Now live! I was interviewed by @matthewlloydr.bsky.social for @opencity-uk.bsky.social Deconstructed podcast discussing the Keeper's Lodge at Plumstead Common, built by the LCC in 1894.

First day teaching @wimbledonual.bsky.social This year, I'm also teaching @chelseaual.bsky.social as usual as well as at West Dean. I am now also expanding my freelance work so watch this space.

It's such a handsome building and also huge, dominating the whole side of General Gordon Square.

Pretty good venue for my COVID/flu jab. Equitable House, Lionel U. Grace and W. G. Farmer (1935). Built as the headquarters of the Woolwich Equitable Building Society, it now houses a health centre. If interested in Woolwich's rich history, I do a tour of Woolwich for @opencity-uk.bsky.social

Sunday reading, Vogue and @museumsassociation.org Museums Journal.

Recent excitement at seeing the LCC crest in County Hall again when visiting with family. Boyfriend (filming) and family used to LCC crest spotting. As I note in the video, the lion is quite small.

Used some Nick Hedges photographs in a teaching session today and just realised he recently died. Famous for his images of urban living conditions in cities such as Manchester for @sheltercharity.bsky.social those images remain emotive, urgent and, unfortunately, speak to today's housing crisis.

Yes, I would love to. I'll send you a DM.

Catch me in the @theguardian.com today, on the history of high-rise housing. We need to remove the distorting goggles of prejudice in order to understand Britain’s extraordinary high-rise heritage. Consider looking up afresh! www.theguardian.com/artanddesign...

My next @opencity tour of Canary Wharf and East India is Saturday 18th October. Booking and details here: open-city.org.uk/events/c-wha...

As well as leopards, I met a lion and a unicorn today at Goldsmiths Fair. Goldsmiths Hall has beautiful interiors that tell the history and present of the Worshipful Company of Goldsmiths but I failed to get any interior shots beyond these creatures.

Incredible afternoon at the Goldsmiths Fair, Goldsmiths Hall today.

Found myself spotting leopards in the Worshipful Company of Goldsmiths' garden, Gresham Street.
