An (authorised) visit to Hilden Mill #Lisburn last week. It's sad to see the state of the site. Linen thread wasn't sexy but it was ubiquitous, and Barbour Threads was a global brand. The buildings are a monument to our great industrial past, and we shouldn't lose them.

Iโ€™ve just spent three days in Wales visiting Carmarthen Museum Service with colleagues from High Life, Scotland. We had a great time exploring the collection and discussing shared challenges!

This is brilliant! @mcrartgallery have a cold case section in their exhibition. Visitors/researchers can explore the records of individual objects, make suggestions and help the gallery find out more information on unknown objects.
