Today was the first day of our Deep Clean at #Boscobel. It’s always enjoyable I get to work with a great bunch of people. I love seeing parts of the house close-up. #heritage #conservation #shropshire
At an event last year, a visitor suggested that this ring on a brick might in fact be an #apotropaic mark. It’s on an early c19th stable, adjacent to a door. Or could it just be a builder’s/mason’s mark or remnant of a Ministry tradesman testing a new drill? #boscobel

A little King Charles II doll I knitted, enjoying the view of the Royal Oak at Boscobel.

A cow shaped condiment dispenser hangs on a wall. Each udder dispenses a different condiment. From Udder Brothers Creamery in Boscobel, WI.
A cheese burger with pickles, ketchup, mustard, and cheddar cheese from Udder Brothers Creamery in Boscobel, WI.
Hot and crispy onion rings from Udder Brothers in Boscobel, WI.
A hot fudge sundae from Udder Brothers Creamery in Boscobel, WI.
Fighting the food coma, but I had to tell everyone that Christopher Hampton and I stopped at Udder Brothers Creamery in Boscobel. The burgers and ice cream were great, but the fried food was fine perfectly crappy and super fresh! Definitely give it a try!

The original #Boscobel oak was chosen as a hiding place by Charles II in 1651
Its successor, the current (higher) tree here, was planted in the C18
The smaller #tree (and one day successor) was planted next to it by the then Prince, now King, Charles III in 2001

Yesterday, I met up with my EH work colleagues, both staff and volunteers for a walk around the #Staffordshire village of #Brewood, close to #Boscobel. We started at St Mary’s catholic church, which has a fascinating history
All the kneeling, working in dark corners, laying under tables inspecting woodwork damage etc is worth it for the view at dusk #heritage #conservation #boscobel #shropshire
And of course, there’s acres of wainscot panelling and 19th century frieze that needs close brush work. Initially you don’t think it makes a difference but you notice it when it’s all finished #heritage #conservation #boscobel #shropshire
It’s conservation week at work, a deep clean of the house, furniture and other collection items. This year I’ve had the pleasure to work on some of the smaller items, ceramic, metal, glass and paper #heritage #conservation #boscobel #shropshire
