Thought I’d already done a thread for this!!

Anyway, ourpasthistory.com is the addy for the site I’ve created for Darwen Archaeology Society. It is still a work in progress as I am still receiving info although not as frequently as I’d hoped!!

I am looking into changing the Home page somehow and I do have a couple of ideas.

So!!!! Comments please on how you think it looks and you think it needs will be gratefully accepted

that’s a good one, he must be a REALLY serious member of ‘Tunnel Soc.’ {now bookmarked in my london heritage section} go and check out one of the very first books exposuring the work of our spooks in the early 70s: “Beneath the City Streets’ by Peter Laurie reprinted in the 80s I think. He had the low down on Down Street and Brompton Road used in WW2 and the secret government bunkers under Kingsway in Holborn. it’s amazing how many of the stations mentioned are close to me, or rather how all the stations close to me are mentioned! Holloway Road, Drayton Park/Finsbury Park, Highbury & Islington, York Road, Angel, South Kentish Town and more stations not much further away. if York Road gets re-opened with Kings Cross redevelopments then it will add a minute or two on to all my journeys.

The decision to edit this post was taken because of the number of complaints from existing members we have received about it The TTFF forum was set up for like minded viewers of Time team to share chat, humour and anything else about the programme as they see fit – It was not set up to carry on the detecting debate in the manner on the original TTF or on the other detecting fora and mailing lists that are available. Questioning the moderator on why it was done and then repeating the post is against the forum rules and the poster has now been deactivated (not deleted). This decision was not taken lightly –it was done because we want to keep this forum a friendly and positive place for our regular members to visit.

Ive been emailed today asking if I could pop this info on here – looks good!

I understand that you have an active interest in underwater archaeology and maritime history. You might therefore like to take a look at www.shipwrecks.uk.com which looks like being a really good research tool and online reference. The system was very well received when it received its first public airing at the Natical Archaeology Society Conference in Portsmouth on 12th November.

Many thanks, Alan Jones

You all remember the programme “The Furnace in the Cellar” broadcast in February 2002 don’t you? Yes, I thought so. You might like to know that a group was formed soon after the programme was shown and is trying to raise funds to carry out some restoration work.

Our web site is at http://www.leightonheritage.info/

There’s some more work to do on it, but it’s a start._________________

Can we have a ‘how medieval water mills worked’ thread? I presume there were a number of methods involved in the setting up of them? I know of one derelict medieval mill that has huge blocks of quarried sandstone left as remains in downstream, I took those as being used to form a dam rather than the later methods of re directing the stream. Any thoughts anybody?

I have never looked into this in depth.
