Have used the Victoria County History for decades. Any opportunity to bring its excellent work to people’s attention. Not on the payroll - just a fan.

This history of elements of modern #Loughborough is another of our forthcoming attractions.
It will include the amazingly involved branches of protestant nonconformity, the cultural expressions of the town's many migrant communities, druids, and - of course - sport.
Lots of sport. #Skystorians
This fascinating preview of our next #BigRedBook on Yorkshire's East Riding shows how we can connect the built environment with the documented history of a region, in this case, the Yorkshire Wolds at Nunburnholme. 🗃️

Obviously intriguing stuff in church at Nunburnholme,Yorks, E Riding - not just its early medieval cross shaft. Place to look for both will be Victoria County History vol 252, now with publisher, expected 2027. @vch-home.bsky.social is foundation stone of English local history. Congratulations!

Congratulations to all involved. We understand a little of the commitment required - our VCH history of Loughborough (only post 1750 and only social and cultural history at the moment) is "just" 100,000 words but has kept us occupied for what seems like ages. Out later this year. Watch this space.
