There's an amazing new paper out on the 'lost' residence of King Harold, depicted in the Bayeux Tapestry.

Today, our @UniShefArch students are doing some surveys of the bandstand in Weston Park. This is the only standing bandstand in the project, so the details are key to understanding the other sites.

[Kat Fennelly @KatFnly]

Back on the bandstands work. Today we're at Endcliffe Park with students from the MA Cultural Heritage Management and MA Heritage and Archaeology @UniShefArch

[Kat Fennelly @KatFnly]

Highlights from this chapter are an anecdote from my student digging days about Maud Cunnington (née Pegge), and my attempts to work out the floor plan of an altered 19th-century building without the original plans.

@khargaoasis No, we're just survey and recording.

[Kat Fennelly @KatFnly]

I was back in the field today after a long time. We did some geophysics today at Hillsborough Park with @UniShefArch students, looking for bandstands.

[Kat Fennelly @KatFnly]

@khargaoasis The impression is still on the ground, yes! This week, we'll process the geophysics data.

[Kat Fennelly @KatFnly]

@enricharch We've finished in Hillsborough for now. There will be other bandstand work in Sheffield later in the summer, though!

It's the final day of #SAA2024NOLA and I'm still here with @Yvette_A88 at stall 127 in the exhibit hall for @UniShefArch ! Come say hi and pick up a postcard of the beautiful Edwardian facade of Firth Court!

[Kat Fennelly @KatFnly]

I'm at the #SAA2024NOLA conference with @Yvette_A88 and excited to talk about @UniShefArch . We're at booth 127 in the exhibit hall. Come say hi!

After three months of making slides for work, I decided to do something different with my TAG ppt. I made it analogue first with paper scraps, adding text boxes on ppt after.

[Kat Fennelly @KatFnly]

Since it’s been a few years since I’ve been to @AntiquityTAG , I forgot that every session generates a list of must-read books that tanks my budget for the next six months. #TAG2024

[Kat Fennelly @KatFnly]

I won't be able to get to @AntiquityTAG until tomorrow morning (sad) so attending vicariously today through others live-blogging.

[Kat Fennelly @KatFnly]

"Poverty Archaeology," the book I wrote with @504Charlie is out now! This book is what happens when you keep running into the same person at conferences and just make a collaboration out of it. https://t.co/gXdqkHBUQt
