Anyone for pickled sparrows? How about some vipers to raise one's spirits? Hmm, maybe not! But this recipe book of 18th century recipes does make an interesting read. You can discover more about it in our blog royalberkshirearchives.org.uk/blog/excitin... #Archive30 #ArchiveFoodAndDrink

On the final day of #Archive30, the question is #WhyArchives?
Archives allow us to understand and to engage with the world around us, our stories, our communities, and our landscapes.
They allow us to connect with the past, but they also inspire our future, igniting our curiosity and imagination.

Day 4 #Archive30 #ArchiveConservation is a perpetual concern for museums. This 1885 letter from T Cranfield of the Fine Art Repository describes the portraits in #RCPI as being “in very bad condition…very dirty”. Thanks to the efforts of RCPI, this is happily not the case today!

For many years, a massive bonfire was a key Homecoming tradition at University of Nebraska at Kearney. Unsurprisingly, it was eventually ended due to safety concerns.

Our mental health collections hold some of the #hiddenhistories of the county. Patient case notes and admission registers can sometimes help family historians rediscover hidden or forgotten ancestors.

#SomethingNew are a couple of recently deposited albums of sketches, painted drawings, dried flowers & plants - even a peacock feather! They show many animals, scenery & places such as Pangbourne. The detail & colour is amazing - not everything archival is beige! 😉 😂 #Archive30
