Caught the end of fascinating panoramas of Edinburgh- Room 12, National Gallery including 3 images- new to me- of the Trinity Church- 1750, 1775 and 1808- well worth seeing. The Trinity Stones exhibition closes on 28th and last talk on 27th. Thanks to everyone who has visited and supported.
Busy day at Linlithgow Palace and St Michaels Church for the launch of our book on Anselm Adornes. Especially apt since Anselm was keeper of the Palace for James III and buried in St Michaels after his murder, his heart sent back to Bruges. Thank you @jillharrison1.bsky.social for organising! ⛪🏰🦄⚔️
Great to see our Anselm Adornes event getting a full page spread in the wonderful BLACK BITCH- the Linlithgow Community Magazine. Join us for an afternoon discussing the GREAT LIFE OF ANSELM ADORNES on 6th June, St Michael's Church at 2.30 p.m
