Study Hopes to Recreate Smells of History - WB Nov 2020
Welcome to Watching Brief. A monthly show available via podcast and as topical segments via YouTube. As the name implies, each month my co-host Andy Brockman of the Pipeline (Where history is tomorrow's news) and I cast an eye over news stories, topical media and entertainment and discuss and debate what we find.
Today the Daily Mail is once again on the war path with regards to the National Trust and so-called 'woke' historical narratives augmenting the stories of historical sites across the UK.
But who actually writes history?

Tinsley Time and Travel is a community heritage project to celebrate the unique history of Tinsley, Sheffield S9. We are looking at Tinsley’s history through nine timeline milestones: from the Bronze age to the present day.
Themes of transport, travel and change have shaped Tinsley since pre-history, and continue to do so today. By creating community events, heritage activities and learning opportunities we are sharing Tinsley’s heritage.
