Really enjoyed ‘William Blake’s Universe’ @FitzMuseum_UK & the imaginative & intellectual connections it establishes with the work of Caspar David Friedrich & Philip Otto Runge. On display until 19 May https://t.co/gd5POqSuYC
@TrooperSnooks@johnmitchinson @unbounders @PaddyGalbraith Yes, it's not much of an exaggeration to say all history is built on fences. Though the neat lines we draw on historical maps probably says more about how we see the world than the more fluid and hybrid relationships (between people and with nature) that existed in the past.
@TrooperSnooks@johnmitchinson @unbounders @PaddyGalbraith Thanks - will have a listen. I'm looking at fences in a global context as a window on the history of property, division and conflict. Hedges will only be a small part of the story but I see them as one of the most positive forms of fencing, ecologically and potentially socially.
A very special video today from our general secretary, @CampaignerKate, as she marks 40 incredible years with the Open Spaces Society. Congratulations, Kate!

Take a look at our delicately beautiful collection of decorated pace eggs. These were painted by James Dixon, who worked for Wordsworth for 33 years as his gardener and clerk at Rydal Mount. It is thought James made these Pace Eggs for William and Mary's grandchildren.
Delighted that the first review of 'Lifescapes' is now out. Very grateful to Daniel for his perceptive and thought-provoking comments. @cambUP_History@CUPBookshop
