Fabulous site at the cemetery yesterday. Historic bus tour celebrating the history, heritage and contribution of Bradford’s German population from the Victorian period onwards. A tight squeeze getting that bus through the gates! @davidpendleton0 #bradford2025 #cityofculture

Thank you @TLRHub and @nearfm for inviting me to speak on medical relief and death in the post-Famine Dublin #workhouses. It was a great conversation & I enjoyed hearing about the audience’s family history. The recording will be released on 29 May #irishhistory #histmed

Today we honour the memory of a Bradford City fire victim, laid to rest in an unmarked grave here at Undercliffe Cemetery. Thanks to the generosity and dedication of our volunteers, a permanent memorial now stands in his name — John Hutton — never forgotten.
