  • Knowing Bradford This Pack Has Been Developed to Support the ‘Knowing Bradford’ Project
    Activity Pack – Knowing Bradford This pack has been developed to support the ‘Knowing Bradford’ project. It will help students to explore the history of Bradford places and people. Introduction The script of people and places in Bradford merely scratches the surface of the city’s past and locations important to its history and heritage. There is a lot more that students could explore. The ideas presented here are examples of follow-up activities that will reinforce learning, understanding, awareness, and develop research, literacy, oracy and presentation skills. They can be mixed and matched depending on student levels. They have been divided into subject areas, although most are related to more than one curriculum area, e.g.: historical research includes reading and concentration skills, and may lead to writing, art, design activities, etc. Maths is also integral to many of the activities. Each scene could be performed individually by students to recap knowledge before choosing follow-up activities related to those scenes. This Activity Pack relates to the Teaching Activity - Knowing Bradford: How can buildings tell a story?

But where is the history more interesting and important than that of our own, "our much loved native land," that abounds in incidents more romantic, or narrative more thrilling? Buta little more than two centuries have elapsed since the first band of the " Puritan Fathers" left their native home, crossed the wild Atlantic, landed on the snow-clad rock of Plymouth, and laid the first foundation stone of New England.

    Minutes of the Treasure Valuation Committee Meeting – 2nd June 2011 The meeting was held in the Hartwell Room at the British Museum on Thursday, 2nd June 2011 at 11am. Present Committee: Other: Colin Renfrew (Chair) Caroline Barton (BM) Trevor Austin Roger Bland (BM) Ian Carradice Janina Parol (BM) John Cherry Ian Richardson (BM) Peter Clayton Kathryn Barrett (DCMS) David Dykes Helen Loughlin (DCMS) Tim Pestell Item 1: Lord Renfrew explained that he was honoured to be assuming the position of Chairman of the TVC, and led the Committee in noting its thanks to the former Chairman Norman Palmer for his many years of excellent service on the Committee. The Secretariat was asked to write a letter to Norman Palmer to that effect. Item 2: Minutes of the meeting of Friday 5th May 2011 The Minutes of the meeting were formally adopted as a true record. Item 3: Objects Roman artefacts 1. Roman silver finger-ring fragment from Crosby Ravensworth, Cumbria (2010 T765) The provisional valuer suggested £18-£20. The Committee inspected the item in light of this and felt that the fragment possessed less by way of attraction than had been accounted for in Ms ’s suggestion. The Committee recommended £10. Penrith and Eden Museum hopes to acquire. 2. Roman silver finger-ring from Crosby Ravensworth, Cumbria (2010 T766) The provisional valuer suggested £90-£110. The Committee examined the finger-ring in light of this and commented on the absence of the intaglio and evidence of heavy wear, which detracted from the ring’s appeal. On balance it was felt that the suggested range was slightly high, and the Committee recommended £70.

    Yorkshire Archaeological Research Framework: resource assessment A report prepared for the Yorkshire Archaeological Research Framework Forum and for English Heritage – project number 2936 RFRA S. Roskams and M. Whyman (Department of Archaeology, University of York) 2005 ABSTRACT This report represents the outcome of research undertaken into the archaeological resources of Yorkshire, using data gathered by SMRs, museums and commercial contractors. It describes the background to the project and its objectives, and the methods used to draw evidence from these diverse sources into a single database. It then proceeds to describe patterning in the data thus collected and collated, first at a general level across the region, then on a chronological basis from the Palaeolithic to Early Modern periods. In each period, the implications of this patterning for archaeological understanding of Yorkshire are drawn out.
