FEEDBACK PLEASE! The organisers of the recent Flamstead Arts Festival would like to know what you thought of it. What were the positives and what were the negatives? If you were to give it stars where 1 is poor and 5 is great, what would you choose? Any other comments welcome. – at Flamstead, England

Leaving St Leonards church in Flamstead yesterday evening at the end of a six year project. An amazing church, fantastic wall paintings, and stunning medieval graffiti. I'm going to miss it. But mainly I'll miss the wonderful local community, who have saved this stunning church.

The summer edition of the National Trust magazine is out now. You've been warned. And they accuse archaeologists and the NT of being 'woke'... Obviously haven't met the magazine staff.

Coming Soon….. an opportunity to find out about the ancient graffiti in St Leonard’s church in Flamstead. Could the marks be linked to witchcraft? What can they tell us about our ancestors in the village since Medieval times? #history#archaeology#graffiti#flamstead#herts – at Flamstead, England

Delighted to hear that the next stage of the project at Flamstead St Leonard's has been approved. Time to tie all the research, archaeology, art history, and documentation together. A superb church, fantastic graffiti, and a unique and fascinating history.
