1 #IconTC Conservation in all its guises offers a window on the past with greater tangibility than almost anything else. Be it a @cadwwales castle, a quaint church in the care of @friendschurches, or the objects and monuments in the care of @ShakespeareBT

Twitter! Can you help?

We have some oil lamps at a church in Monmouthshire that need refurbishment to get them working for a wedding. Does anyone know anyone who knows anything about mending 1890s oil lamps?

Maybe you do @lrbilson ??

[TheHeritageExplorer @lrbilson]

@MorleyRA Oo not sure - will ask around

Very sad development

[North.Wales @northdotwales]

Some sad news this afternoon as police confirm a body found in the sea off Anglesey on Saturday is that of a man reported missing last week. NWP Anglesey said: "Our deepest condolences remain with Gareth’s family and friends at this difficult time."
