General
editI studied history at University so I'm quite keen on looking at original sources.
I lived in Bromsgrove, Worcestershire. That doesn't make me partial but explains my interest in those pages. I've been working on the history sections and pages in that area.
Other projects
editI've contributed to:
- Wikivoyage mostly from holiday trips.
My interest in history has led to an interest in Latin. I've made some contributions to
Declaration of interests
