[2/2] This clip is particularly pleasing - removing centuries of grime, giving a glimpse of how beautiful the building will look when all is done. Plus a cheeky photo of @BeckyLumley. Huge thanks to funders & colleagues alike @HeritageFundUK@DCMS@MGarn_Partner@DrJEngland.
View from the back @StMarysBeverley at our beer talk & tasting. @DrJEngland kicks off with some history on brewing, showcasing one of the church’s magnificent Tudor roof bosses - the Ale Wife. The bosses are the focus of a major heritage project supported @HeritageFundUK.
Good morning from a gloriously sunny Beverley. For his ‘My Journeyman Years’ talk, master stonemason David Switalla has brought along three colleagues who are currently serving their own journeyman years. Talk begins at 11am.
😢My last ever collaboration as Development Director @StMarysBeverley with @GarnessArt. It’s been such a joy to work with this generous, amazing artist. Check out her beautiful backdrops for the #Beveley1300 Paths Of Life event.
🎉We are thrilled to launch #Beverley1300 today, a vibrant festival celebrating the 1300th anniversary of St John of Beverley - the town's 'founding father': https://t.co/ZKLef7Cds3
Our riff on @heritageopenday theme of ‘Edible History’: people eating (and drinking) and people being eaten; depicted among the 689 roof bosses which adorn our ceilings. Images from @DrJEngland’s hourly talks. Catch the last two at 2pm and 3pm.
And we’re off! @heritageopenday is in full swing across Beverley. @AbsCultured volunteers and our very own @DrJEngland share stories & uncover some of the glories of St Mary’s with enthralled visitors. Pop in if you’re down town today! We’re upon until 4pm and it’s free!
🔬Our roof bosses have been put under the microscope! @DrJEngland takes us through the fascinating findings from the paint analysis in the latest edition of our heritage newsletter: https://t.co/V2kNs1eqri
My purple skinny jeans make a very rare outing these days but here they are in print as Wolsey’s legs. Lovely photo of @DrJEngland too! Thanks so much @SimonHulmeYPN for the mega photography. Have a great weekend everyone
