'Angel bags' on riverside trees during Covid for people to take as desired. #OnePlaceFolklore in a modern context. #OnePlaceWednesday #OnePlaceStudies

Don't know of any witches in my #OnePlaceStudies place, but we are 8 miles from Pendle, about which much tripe has been written. #OnePlaceFolklore.

Witches in your #OnePlaceStudy? Who were they, and how did they fit into the #FamilyHistory, #SocialHistory and #LocalHistory of your Place? #OnePlaceFolklore is our blogging and social media prompt for October.



At least three doctors lived in my #OnePlaceStudies place, and Springhill House was once a nursing home so yes! #OnePlaceWednesday.

On #OnePlaceWednesday LIVE - several members said their favourite #AATP24 day was Health & Medicine. Discussing doctors in our place. Where did the doctor live? How did residents call them? How did the doctor travel to people’s homes? Have you investigated your place’s doctors?



Well I have an odd #OnePlaceStudies #OnePlaceCharities bequest, but that will have to wait until November! #OnePlaceWednesday

A #OnePlaceWednesday reminder of our #OnePlaceStudy blogging and social media prompts for the second half of 2024. I hope to finalise the list of prompts for 2025 by the end of the month and would welcome your suggestions—by DM or in replies to this tweet—for OPS-related themes!

Not quite my #OnePlaceStudies place but the cotton famine road on the left, Naden reservoirs on the right and remains of the Moorcock pub between. Notorious for bare knuckle fighting - is it #OnePlaceFolklore if it's true? #OnePlaceWednesday

Looking forward to mind mapping by Linda Hammond at 5pm on #AATP24. I have made some interesting connections by mind mapping for my #OnePlaceStudies but feel there is so much more to explore!


Many congratulations! Also hear Anna at the @OnePlaceStudies #OnePlaceStudies conference in November. Free to members!
