Unearthed Even the most ordinary object has many stories to tell, depending on how you look at it

Museums of History NSW present an exhibition and documentary on the excavation of Australia's first Government House between 1983 and 1991 where around 140,000 objects that had lain hidden beneath the city’s streets for almost 140 years were unearthed #histarch mhnsw.au/whats-on/exh... /em

Had a lovely class on Gothic Revival #architecture and the rise of museums in the #c19 last week. It was made all the better by a #sumo sighting at the Albert Memorial. #amteaching #histarch

Chatted about civic buildings, museums, and the architecture of empire Somerset House and Trafalgar Square. As always, students came up with great Fourth Plinth ideas and the sun shone (for this class only, others it only rains for) #amteaching #histarch #architecture 🗃️

Taught in Soho last week, asking students to think about how community is created and commemorated with case studies of Queer Soho and London’s Chinatown.

Loved their ideas and engagement with the cityscape. #amteaching #histarch #LondonChinatown #Soho

Enjoyed teaching about 19th-century infrastructure and design of railway stations with rain pouring down on the glass of St Pancras International ☔️ 🌧️ #amteaching #histarch

Took students to the Painted Hall to talk Wren, English Baroque, and the British monarchy, and was delighted to find Helios by @lukejerram.bsky.social !

Students loved it, especially the scale model of the Earth. #histarch #greenwich #oldroyalnavalcollege
