The White Mill in Sandwich, Kent, is about to turn its sails once again! Built in 1760, it’s being restored thanks to years of volunteer dedication. A great community landmark.

Our team leader Tracy Ireland delivered a keynote at the NSW Heritage Forum. Drawing on insights from the #everydayheritage project, she discussed the scarcity paradigm of heritage and the alternative economies of heritage that are possible when heritage is seen as an abundant part of everyday life.

The oldest wooden church in the world stands in Ongar, Essex.

🏗️ Shrewsbury Flaxmill Maltings (1797), Shropshire — the world’s first iron-framed building.
Known as the grandfather of skyscrapers, this Grade I site began as a working flax mill — a quiet revolution in everyday industry.
Now beautifully restored. #EverydayHeritage

The King’s Head, a Grade II listed 16th-century pub, is a gem in #Suffolk’s heritage. Its timber-framed structure and thatched roof evoke its roots as a farmhouse before its conversion into a public house long before the 1830 Beer Act.

Of all the lovely things i experienced in Australia this week at #everydayheritage the most nourishing was spending quality time with good people. Time is often our most valuable, and hard to locate, asset. Putting aside the week for a project finale was the best decision i’ve made in a while x

British soldiers, The Maze prison (Long Kesh) 1978.
One of the lessons I've learned this week is that when it comes to difficult pasts, sometimes it takes time for people to talk. I spoke to my dad yesterday about his time working at the infamous Maze prison in 1978. He started sending notes and pictures. This is him (far left). #everydayheritage

When HPB was first put on the National Trust list, the focus was on aesthetics of 'fine, old, colonial' buildings, not on the lives lives inside, the Country it was on, or whose Country the materials came from #EverydayHeritage
