What we have got is a ghost sign on Eldon Street which was uncovered as part of the Eldon HSHAZ in 2024. With the nature of ghost signs this quickly vanished #HeritageTreasures

We're joining The National Lottery Heritage Fund in celebrating #HeritageTreasures Day, when heritage attractions showcase beautiful and treasured objects. Our contribution is the nearest thing we've got to treasure, the golden key that was used to ceremonially open the Manchester tramways system.

A cautionary tale from the U.S. on #HeritageTreasuresDay. Treasures of great historical value, e.g., The White House, belong to posterity. It's vital to preserve national treasures, preventing the power mad from causing devastation based on their own egomania & vindictiveness. #HeritageTreasures
