This is such a fantastic idea (non-invasive yet clear): Using luminous light shows via drones to illuminate the footprints of the destroyed aspects of historic monuments — by Cyberdrone Drone Shows.

I’m deeply saddened to hear of the passing today of Mike Ingram. @sunray22 was a gifted historian and speaker with a genuine passion for Northampton & its history. I will miss him a great deal. Here is Mike doing what he enjoyed: talking about Northampton

Look @principalest - we could have given them an update on how Northampton’s @Eleanor_1290 may very well have saved our lives back in Jan 2019.

#OnThisDay 1290 Eleanor of Castile, beloved queen of Edward I, died at Harby (Notts). He commissioned the Eleanor Crosses in her memory. Here's a short piece I wrote about her: https://t.co/lrGEhoE9Uu

@Eleanor_1290 We’re looking forward to visiting Northampton and Geddington in a few weeks time raising money for @homelesslondon & @FriendsofCSTM . Hopefully we’ll be greeted by the Queen Eleanor Fire Engine and see Northampton’s Cross in all its 2020 glory.
