Mud and stud is a hybrid technique, combining earth and timber to cremate buildings which have responded to their environment for more than half a millennium, and which have the potential to inform building methods in the future too. This talk will explore the technique, place it in its historical and geographical context and take a peek at how it might inform building in Lincolnshire - and perhaps beyond? - in a changing world.

Whatever your politics, you have to admit that @marshfamilysongs.bsky.social are outstanding lyricists and musicians. And in this particular case they have absolutely hit the nail on the head.

Happy Bank Holiday! Here’s a tongue-in-cheek #parody song about #nigelfarage accepting a massive gift from a #crypto billionaire and then hiding from a #BBC interview - to the iconic tune #500miles of the legendary Proclaimers … We’re calling it: “Five Million Quid” 💰🤑💰🤑💰🎶 youtu.be/z5A0qpWUrfg?...

I'm very much looking forward to speaking to Willoughby History Group (nr Alford) on Saturday about mud and stud. It's fun to be giving this talk in the heartland of the technique, and I'm also very excited to be able to share about the Mud & Stud Buildings project - and invite them to get involved.

Well it's 11 o'clock at night but it's snowing for the first time this year so I couldn't help sneaking out to enjoy it. The snow is really odd - soft and fluffy but weirdly dry in the hand, even when you take a handful back home to show the rest of the family!

I'm absolutely delighted to share that I have just been appointed Project Officer for Lincolnshire County Council's new Mud and Stud project. Really looking forward to getting stuck into the first proper county-wide study of its indigenous building technique!

A mud and stud cottage with lovely daubed walls, thatched roof and brick plinth. It looks really inviting and makes you want to go in through the door and explore.

An absolutely pleasure to speak to Bracebridge Heath U3A today about mud and stud, and a delight to be speaking to Horncastle History & Heritage Society tomorrow evening - in the heart of Mud & Stud country!

I wish I had been able to go on a weekend like this when I was an undergraduate. If you've ever wondered about the houses of ordinary folk in history, or (if you know me) wondered what it is that I actually get up to, then book in and have an amazing weekend in Oxfordshire!

New to vernacular architecture and want to find out more? Why not come along to our training and study weekend at Sutton Courteney Abbey in Oxfordshire on 4-5 October 2025, and discover how we go about examining buildings? Further details at www.vag.org.uk/conferences.....

Absolutely devastated to learn today that Pete's Eats in Llanberis has gone the way of all things. It's been an (admittedly less frequent than I would like) part of my life forever, and now there's no point finishing the Welsh 2000s if I can't finish in Pete's Eats!

Very much looking forward to speaking to Grantham Local History Society on Monday evening. I'll be talking about all things Mud and Stud at Grantham Museum at 7.30pm,and would love to see you there!

🧵 The UK government has announced they will make over £5bn in cuts to disabled people’s social security. This is the biggest cut on record. And we’re appalled. People at food banks have told us that they’re terrified about how they might survive.
