Another fantastic trip to the Chalke Valley History Festival. Some really interesting talks and a chance to watch Tim Bouverie, an OB, discuss Chamberlain’s policy of appeasement.

A lovely evening taking students for a guided tour of Hambledon Hill and it’s prehistoric past. You can’t beat stunning views, hot chocolate, freshly cooked cookies and some incredible stories of how our ancestors lived.

A great way for students to gain some background knowledge on the history of Afghanistan.

Today, like Babur sweeping down from Kabul onto Delhi, we range far & wide, exploring the history of AFGHANISTAN. From Alexander the Great to the Great Game, and from the Bactrians to Joe Biden...

Great final session cleaning and interpreting the finds. Clear evidence we were digging the domestic quarters of the old house. Great team effort!

[Bryanston History @BryHistory]

So nice to be able to take some A3 students to the Chalke Valley History Festival. Fascinating talks, great weather and lots and lots to see. We can’t wait to return with more students next year!

[Bryanston History @BryHistory]

The 2021 dig has finished. The team has found clear evidence of the early house as well as a penchant for brown source amongst the early inhabitants! A fantastic introduction to archeology.

[Bryanston History @BryHistory]

Great to get the 2021 Bryanston archeology dig underway! Potential evidence of a wall, but are they remains of the old house?

[Bryanston History @BryHistory]

Great session in the archives in preparation for the archeology ECA’s hunt for the exact location of the old Portman house.

[Bryanston History @BryHistory]

@BryanstonRowing Good to see Mr Bridges getting stuck in!

[Bryanston History @BryHistory]

Students in the P & P society were asked to have a go at the following quiz https://t.co/cx08d3Dm8z The results raised important questions over how well we understand the world and why misconceptions have developed over time. What’s your score?

[Bryanston History @BryHistory]

@mrfitzhist This looks really impressive, can I ask what software you are using to produce these resources?

[Bryanston History @BryHistory]

A thought provoking article which helped shape our discussion of events in Washington during the Past and Present ECA this week. It reinforced the importance, as well as the dangers of making parallels with the past.

Listening to Desert Island Discs is a great way of widening one's perspectives. It was great to listen to David Olusoga's love and passion for history, the way that he has shone a spotlight on neglected areas of our past as well as the challenges he faced growing up.@DavidOlusoga

@BryOutdoorEd I’m pretty sure it was the stone dogs that come alive at night!
