The conservation archivist - # 08/158

Another of my little cameo shots of activity at Ham House where I help to repair the unrepairable.

A quiet pause for thought or "the Archivist" - # 08/43

Scenes of Brentford (in 1873 described by the local paper, in protest, as "the Filthiest Place in England") will continue tomorrow. Meanwhile, here we are, suddenly back in Ham House where we are preparing for the new visitor season which starts on 15th March. The Archivist is working in the small anteroom outside the Library, cataloguing the book collection. I couldn't resist capturing this snap: hand held and no camera shake!!! (for a small series on the Library go back to #10,11,12 from Feb 2007).
