@JohnWRees Excited to have ordered this John, congratulations!

Curated by yours truly over the course of the last year and featuring a manuscript edited in the hand of Elizabeth I, books commissioned by Margaret Beaufort, and, best of all, three gorgeous Syon manuscripts (just a fraction of the Lambeth collections!) Come visit!

@katherine_ethel Just finished reading your chapter on inclusive teaching in the Karen Wespieser book. Loved it and I'm sharing with my dept & training teachers. Do you know anyone/anywhere who does subject-specific research on SEN & inclusive teaching (geog, history etc)?

[Peter Harris @peter_coxwell]

@KeepPowder @JohnWRees @SocialHistoryOx @MuseumCromwell Yes, good point, I'll have a look, thanks

[Peter Harris @peter_coxwell]

I'm looking for good places in London to take sixth formers to improve understanding of 1640s and 1650s radicalism (Lilburnes, Harrison et al). Does anyone know a good place? @JohnWRees or @SocialHistoryOx could you help me? Coleman Street seems very quiet these days

[Peter Harris @peter_coxwell]

@SocialHistoryOx @LeandadeLisle @JohnWRees I had no idea about Tate's pamphlets, thank you! And free as well, in fact this whole radical tour can be done free, very appropriate. I'm very grateful for all these suggestions. The students enjoy Barebone and his (possible) full name, Fleet Street would be very atmospheric

[Peter Harris @peter_coxwell]

@LeandadeLisle @JohnWRees @SocialHistoryOx That's another great one, thank you too! Can start with Westminster Abbey, Root and Branch and fights with the choristers, head past the Banqueting House and into the City. Putney might need a second trip, any excuse

[Peter Harris @peter_coxwell]

@_paullay @JohnWRees @SocialHistoryOx Duly added thank you, I'm going to do a map of all these

[Peter Harris @peter_coxwell]

@_paullay @JohnWRees @SocialHistoryOx Another great recommendation, thank you Paul (and Providence Lost really helping my teaching and my sixth formers, it's fantastic, thank you)

The 17th century keeps on giving

[Peter Harris @peter_coxwell]

@JohnWRees @SocialHistoryOx Brilliant!!

[Peter Harris @peter_coxwell]

@JohnWRees @SocialHistoryOx @MuseumCromwell And agree about the streets around Coleman Street, and the Guildhall

[Peter Harris @peter_coxwell]

@JohnWRees @SocialHistoryOx That's fantastic, thank you John. Love the idea of the BL and leveller pamphlets. We were @MuseumCromwell yesterday with a great collection too. Unfortunately Banqueting House shut to 2026 but you're right, the bust is visible. I can see a great walking tour coming on...

[Peter Harris @peter_coxwell]

@Historylecturer @JohnWRees @SocialHistoryOx Good idea but alas it's closed, reopening 2026 in Smithfield. I don't think the Docklands site will have much

[Peter Harris @peter_coxwell]

@Historylecturer @JohnWRees @SocialHistoryOx Cheers! Been teaching it for years and haven't come across anything but it must be out there

[Peter Harris @peter_coxwell]

@ParkwoodPrimary @connectNLWA @hackneysuccess Well done Parkwood!!
