Proud wife, mother, granny. Love Uxbridge and enjoyed the privilege of serving as a Ward Councillor for 16 years.

And that's just for starters. Frightening.

The right-wing populist party Reform UK has given a rare glimpse of its disability policies, after its leader Nigel Farage suggested he was strongly in favour of cuts to disabled people’s benefits.

When will we have a proper museum where this heritage can be properly conserved and displayed?

[Hillingdon Museum and Archives @Hill_Museums]

The ‘Pynchester vase’ was discovered in #Ickenham during the 1966-69 excavations of a medieval moated site. It is a piece of 14th century Surrey ware, made of white clay & quartz with a green lead glaze. It is one of the medieval highlights of our collections.

The flag of #Kent was included on the registry from its inception.

The design of a white horse rearing on its hind legs has been associated with the county for at least four centuries.

The county motto ‘Invicta’ means ‘unconquered’.

[Dr. M.F. Khan @Dr_TheHistories]

Just a few decades ago, this was the fourth-largest inland sea on Earth, a vast body of water that sustained thriving fishing towns and drew visitors to its coastal resorts. The Aral Sea, once spanning parts of Kazakhstan and Uzbekistan, has now almost entirely vanished, leaving behind an expanse of desert where ships rust in the sand.

For centuries, this sea played a crucial role in regional trade and ecology, but human intervention changed its fate. Massive Soviet irrigation projects diverted its waters for agriculture, causing the sea to shrink at an alarming rate. Today, most of what remains is dry, salty terrain, with only small sections of water surviving due to restoration efforts. The abandoned ships, now stranded miles from any shoreline, serve as eerie reminders of a lost industry and an environmental disaster still unfolding.

Archaeologist Khaled Al-Asaad dedicated his life to the excavation and preservation of Palmyra, a UNESCO World Heritage Site. After enduring weeks of torture, he was beheaded by ISIS for refusing to reveal the location of ancient artifacts. He died a hero of heritage protection.

[Mayor of Hillingdon @HillingdonMayor]

Thank you to historian Greg Sherwood for his talk on Uxbridge's ancient Treaty House, part of which survives as the Crown and Treaty pub.

Greg's work helps us to understand how it would have looked back in the height of the English Civil War when Uxbridge held peace talks.

Exactly right. One of my favourite expressions 🤗💕

“When you wake up in the morning, Pooh,” said Piglet, “what’s the first thing you say to yourself?”
“What’s for breakfast?” said Pooh. “What do YOU say, Piglet?”
“I say, I wonder what’s going to happen exciting today?”
Pooh nodded thoughtfully.
“It’s the same thing.” ~A.A.Milne
