Last but not least for this year's Winter Seminar is Prof. Chris Dyer on 'Housing Medieval Peasant Livestock: New Light On a Dark Corner of Settlement Studies'. #MSRGWinter17
Unfortunately, Kishli Laister-Scott could not make it to present 'Place-Names and the Role of Sheep in Medieval Gloucestershire' owing to illness. However, Becca Gregory has kindly stepped into the fold to present it in her stead! #MSRGWinter17
Stepping in at short notice is the last speaker of our first session, Dr Richard Jones, on 'A Mastiff's Life: Dogs in Royal Forest Settlements'. #MSRGWINTER17
