Big thanks to @BMArchaeology for the guided tour around the engine house compound. Truly amazing discoveries on the site: images show furnaces, flues leading to the chimney & rail track route. We had no idea quite how many remains we have been walking over these past few years!

The publicly accessible @ADS_Update data about @NewportShip @FONSNewportship has so much research potential for researchers in Wales, U.K. across the world to collaborate on. Plenty of funding opportunities through @COSTprogramme @ahrcpress @_UKRO_ @BritishAcademy_ @UKRI_News

Our latest discovery from #Tintern Abbey, a tile of Richard, Earl of Cornwall, King of the Romans (b.1209-d.1272). Henry III, Richard’s brother, gave him Cornwall in 1225 as a 16th birthday present, and was elected King of Germany in 1257. @BMArchaeology @cadwwales @cadwcymru
