Only one of these transport choices is the future for cities. 💖🚲 Taken today in Oxford by my friend Guy.

Oral historians: Recently reconnected with my long time transcriber, and am reminded that he is usually looking for work. Despite claims made by some about wonders of technology, manual transcription remains needed for narrative analysis and to render accents. DM for details.

Great, but behind a pay wall so we can't read it. In York the council are threatening to fine people in one street who put things in their alleyway, when they're trying to create a green space. Does anyone else know why back alleyways are prevalent in the north, but very few in London and the south?

I'm writing a history of the scoria bricks used in many alleyways in York and the North East, made from recycled ironworks slag.

A lovely picture. There's so much to explore about Micklegate. Every building is historic and there were so many fascinating traders.

Will do thanks.

Yes I spotted it, a lovely reflection of our history.

Our colleague Catherine takes lots of photos of little details of York, high up or less noticed www.clementshallhistorygroup.org.uk/blog/a-close...
