Part craft, part industry: there's nowhere quite like #Loughborough bellfoundry.
Proud to have helped across @HistoricEngland for this amazing place. Good luck with exciting plans for the building, for visitors and celebrating the sound of bells!

#OnThisDay 1708 the 'Old Pretender' attempted to land at the Firth of Forth during the abortive #Jacobite invasion that year. Most of his fleet had been chased off by the #RoyalNavy with one ship (the Salisbury) being captured. On board was perennial plotter Lord Griffin.

@MattBookbinding @JonathanMuseum Haha! Love this. Perhaps he'd been taking lessons from Laura Knight and visiting circuses?

Visit @PickfordsHouse to see our toy theatres which originate from around 1800, when print sellers marketed prints of famous actors and actresses of the day. Their trade soon allowed theatre enthusiasts to build miniatures model theatres and stage plays in their own homes.
