Couldn’t share the news with you before, but Princess Sophia Duleep Singh will finally get the recognition she deserves. Six new blue plaques have been granted for 2023. The Princess, suffragette and revolutionary will have her plaque on her grace and favour home at Hampton Court

Nice image I saw floating around aimlessly on FB 'Checkpoint at limes' the artist is J. Goetze. 'Limes' being a frontier or 'limit' the kit worn by the Roman soldiers, mostly the officer's helmet indicates this is in the 3rd century C.E. and that they could be equites of auxilia

A section of wheel ruts cut into the limestone which Malta has many examples, dating is difficult but many seem to date from the late Bronze Age onwards but there are more questions than answers about these tracks #Malta

Don’t forget that tomorrow (31st January) is St Wilgils’ Day. Wilgils of #Ripon (also known as Wilgisl and Hilgis) was a C7th saint and hermit of Anglo-Saxon England and father of St Willibrord. How will you be celebrating?

St. Melangell, tucked into the Berwyn Mountains in Powys, Wales sits within an older circular churchyard of ancient origin. Some of the yew trees there are 2000 years old.

#RomanSiteSaturday: the public latrines in #Ostia are among the best-preserved #Roman latrines. The benches are made of marble, they run along three walls - no stalls, there was no privacy in toilets in Roman times. #RomanArchaeology

#onthisday 1974, TRD 3B G-AWZX operated the first British Airways service, dep MLA at 02:30Z and arr LHR at 04:32Z. Flight no. was BE313 as BA ED did not adopt BAXXX codes until several years after merger with BOAC, and appropriately Zulu Xray was still in basic BEA colours!
