The urban fabric of a city may change, but traces of the past often persist in unexpected ways. Today, we look at the faded remnants of old shops and businesses that once lined Exeter’s streets.

Our call for papers is now open! Head to our website to check out the amazing 35 sessions that will be hosted during the conference. Deadline to submit abstracts is 5 pm BST, 7 September 2026.

Today’s spotlight post looks at Exeter’s Catacombs! As cemeteries within the relatively small city of Exeter filled over time, a need for new burial spaces arose. Eventually, the cholera epidemic of 1832 precipitated the construction of the first publicly funded cemetery in England: the Catacombs.

What happens when the historic fabric of a city comes into conflict with urban development? Today, we look at the story of the Merchant House, a 15th century Tudor house in Exeter, which became a subject of a remarkable act of preservation as the medieval city around it was lost.

Thanks to those who have already submitted session proposals! We have extended the deadline for submission of session proposals to 5 pm, Friday 22nd May, to give time for a few final proposals to come in. Submit your proposals using the form link here: tag2026.square.site/sessions
