What a great job! I’ve just completed researching the history of RAF Silverstone and have now turned to the racing history of the site for the Silverstone Heritage Live Project. Silverstone’s owners, the British Racing Drivers Club, are leading this multi-million pound visitor experience, and I’m working directly with designers Mather and Co and the BRDC Archive.
`Belvedere Village – Victorian Prayers and Profit’ is a primary source- based article on the rapid development of Upper Belvedere in the 1800s. It’s a tale of pubs and patrimony, crooks and committees, old salts, villas and watercress. `Bygone Kent’ is the magazine of Kent’s history and `Belvedere Village’ will appear shortly.
Museum designers Studio MB feature all their projects on their website and I’m pleased to report that they have used my photographs for their page on The Green Howards Museum in Richmond, Yorkshire.

I’ve been copyediting and copywriting text for the redevelopment of The Green Howards Museum in Richmond in Yorkshire. Everyone’s hard work – especially the museum staff and designers Studio MB – has come to fruition in a great new museum. They had financial support from the HLF and their Friends and local community – and over 200 people crammed into the opening. I’m really pleased to have been part of this excellent project.
A double page spread in `Best of British’ on the pleasures – and horrors – of eating out in the 50s and 60s. Remember – `You’re better off at a Berni!’
