In this blog for @ihr_history I consider the interesting career of Laurence Swarfeld, an Antwerp Haberdasher who moved to London in the 1460's and subsequently became a representative for the Merchant Adventurers in Antwerp.

It has been a real pleasure working with @dr_j_r_c and the IHR (@ihr_history) on this internship. This blog focuses on a subject close to the heart of my research, the importing of cheap stuff into later-medieval London.🙂

For over 300 years, Londoners would flock to the shrine of Thomas Becket, often returning with a pewter badge as a keepsake.
Now we're illustrating Becket's extraordinary life through our collection of pilgrim badges in a new #Becket2020 display. bit.ly/2SiVZZT
