Loved hearing about your PhD thesis - sounds brilliant! 🤩
I’ve spent a lovely morning catching up with @tostig1066.bsky.social talking about the Normans and viewing the Chew Valley hoard at the British Museum. A selection of the coins are on display alongside information about the conservation process and casts of the Bayeux Tapestry. #Medievalsky
