#museums30 #museum30 here is a #postcard of Bromwic Hall- The Manor House now one of our museums when it was a pub and restaurant in the 1970s. Love the yellow chairs.

In need of something to do this weekend? Why not head down to @HackGreenBunker to visit Paul, Kyle and Rory in their other guise as @foreignfieldlhg - see it you can solve the Cuban missle crisis without destroying the world!

[Foreign Field Living History Group @foreignfieldlhg]

Come and see us in the Govt Planning Rooms on the lower level. 21-22 #September @HackGreenBunker. We're those Americans downstairs with the Cuban Missile Crisis sim. #coldwar #SovietThreat

This is a fantastic #museum and you really should see it.

Excellent video on the realities of longbows vs. medieval armour in the early C15th - well worth a watch!

[Sam Wilson @ConflictArchaeo]

Experimentation with arms and armour is often the best way to figure out how they work. Tons of 'longbow vs armour' videos out there, many of dubious quality, but you need go no further than this from Todd's Workshop. Practical, professional, excellent! https://t.co/Yze95q15Wo

@SandwellMuseums @sandwellcouncil We quite often get asked some of these at events! No one ever drinking water is probably my favourite...

[Buckinghams Retinue @BucksRetinue]

And the ice creams. Mmmmm. Officially our favourites out of all the sites we visit 🍦🥰🍦 Here's hoping for some sunshine!

[Buckinghams Retinue @BucksRetinue]

@BucksRetinue are very much looking forward to returning to the wonderful @OxburghHallNT this weekend!

If that's not exciting enough, we also recommend you check out the priest hole hidden down the toilet 😶😶😮

[Buckinghams Retinue @BucksRetinue]

@foreignfieldlhg @buckswench @DrVTurner Excellent. I wonder if he would appreciate his retinue paying him a visit?!
