@irarchaeology Wonderful stone - I work with English marriage initials and took a similar photo when I was in Galway last year! Couldn't believe my luck. Have you come across any references to the inscription in any published works?
@earlymodernemma echoing @wheelingstrange i saw 'charge' too! (i thought 'chardge' at first but that lil loop on the left of the g makes less sense then!)
@anulikesstars would also recommend fixed - gives you some protection against the october rises, and since we're using much less than our fixed rate (set in Feb) it ended up being lowered automatically after a couple of months (we're on british gas!)
๐จ Exciting stuff alert! ๐จ Really happy to have been involved in organising these interactive workshops and discussions - can't wait to see the speakers in action!
๐ข Announcing our @SRSRenSoc-funded colloquium taking place both in Sheffield and online on Friday 30th September! Interested in practice-led approaches and new methodologies for examining early modern space? We'd love to see you there!
Details in the thread below...๐
I've just about recovered from the train journey home... But what a conference! Thanks for a wonderful three days @socialhistsoc - it's been brilliant to hear about so much exciting research, and to discuss ideas with such a welcoming group!

Loved chatting about marriage in history with @becmeas on @BBCSheffield just now - really interesting show today looking at people's ideas about and experiences of marriage! (also eternally grateful that our nattering was preceded by Disco Inferno ๐)
