Huge thank you to @heritagelottery and especially to all the players, who have enabled so much of our #history to be researched, curated and shared.
Light shines through a #WidowOnTheWar in St Mary’s Swaffham and @GreatStMarys #Cambridge and St Mary’s Linton too!
Do visit the very splendid and extremely useful Cambridgeshire Collection in #Cambridge central library to see our #WidowOnTheWar exhibition
There’s a great article about our #WindowOnTheWar exhibition, in @CambridgeIndy written by our fantastic curator @JEBounford - our exhibition moves into #Cambridge central library from Monday so pop in and see for yourselves.
Our #WindowOnTheWar exhibition in @michaelhousecaf shows where the massive #WW1 hospital was in #Cambridge - @theUL was built on the site after the war.
Ida Darwin was an extraordinary woman and a great leader in #Cambridge - thank you @akennedysmith for shining more light through a #WindowOnTheWar
