    Another weird London street - Wardrobe Place EC4 - it was here in 1359 that King Edward III housed his extensive clothing collection from the Tower of London - sadly both building and collection perished in the Great Fire of London… #London #History

    Beautiful Anglo-Saxon blue glass beaker, early-7th century AD. Excavated in 1894 from a ‘princely’ burial at Broomfield in Essex.

    Your British convicts weren’t as tradesworthy as our British convicts, here in Oz.
    We were only after the best of the best. Looks like you got the ones we rejected!
