As part of Hands-On Heritage, we have developed: Ten Heritage: How To? Guides. These short guides provide an entry-level introduction to various aspects of Northern Ireland's historic environment. 🧵👇

Another resource we have developed as part of the Hands-On Heritage project is our Online Toolkit Our Toolkit will provide up-to-date information about the latest opportunities, threats and developments within our historic environment

The final tool we have developed for Hands-On Heritage: 📱The In Your Area App The App will allow you to record and map heritage assets that hold significance to you or your community Access it here 👇 experience.arcgis.com/experience/0b1…

When King Edward VII and Queen Alexandra visited Belfast in July 1903, thousands lined the streets to catch a glimpse of the royal couple. A group of people even found their way to the roof of the Old Museum Building, which is now the home of Ulster Architectural Heritage!

It's not hard to picture the group hurriedly clambering up this exact staircase, 120 years ago. This building holds a wealth of memories and stories, and you probably know others that do too. Record them here: arcg.is/TqOPy1

We have a rich architectural heritage in Northern Ireland, but recent data sheds light on the concerning truth - our cherished buildings are facing an unprecedented level of harm. The statistics in this new video underscore the state of Northern Ireland’s historic environment.
