We publish books on local history, landscape, archaeology, architecture & a range of walks guides – all focussed around the Welsh Marches & adjacent counties.
Delighted to receive my copy of The Story of the Herefordshire Pomona, surely the most beautiful publication ever produced about the county and its orchards. A exquisite tribute by Bill Laws, published by @LogastonPress. Many thanks, the perfect antidote to hateful politics...
If you love discovering archaeological remains and finding out what they are, don't miss our author Richard Hayman at this year's @hayfestival - Hidden History in the Welsh Mountains https://t.co/GACNMUt9Lj

Norman fonts in Herefordshire are cut as drums, and will often have a bold pictorial design that tells a coherent story that will be a mystery to a modern viewer. A high point can be seen at Eardisley that is mysteriously decorated with a mass of fronds, knotwork and tendrils that clear around an image of Christ, his cross planted securely in the ground as he fights to haul Adam out from hell – that is represented by more of the tendrils that loop around his legs. Behind him, a gigantic lion-like creature forms another part of the hellscape. The other side, shows two men fighting each other and the entanglement with spears, wearing Norman helmets in what looks like their pyjamas.
You can read more about Norman Fonts in my book - Church Going, out in October. Deets 👇
On Friday Sept 20th @ 7pm I'll be giving a public lecture to the Radnorshire Society at Crossgates about 'Radnorshire and its hilltop monuments' in the wider context of the Hillforts of Wales 🛖. It's an amazing county

THANK YOU WORCESTER!
A huge thank you to everyone who made Worcester 2024 so incredible. Thank you to our Volunteers, Chorus, Voices, Youth Choir, Staff, and of course, all of you.
For now, we say a fond farewell to Worcester, and a warm welcome to Hereford 2025.
In just over a week's time on Saturday 10th Aug I'll be in conversation at the @llangwmlitfest1 about my 'Hillforts of Wales' book 🛖 📚 @ 2.30pm
Pembrokeshire has some of the finest #hillforts & coastal forts in western Britain - but there are still big questions left to answer
