Since September, our Volunteer Coordinator Becky Orchard has been working with our student researchers from both Falmouth and Exeter Universities to not only discover micro-narratives on each church, but also kick-start our memory events with local communities. On Wed 9 October, Dr Caradoc Peter's took a group of Truro college students to St Gluvias Church in Penryn to discuss how the archaeology of the church has contributed to preserving its maritime identity. What's more, some great photographs have been coming through the visual social media platform, Instagram, and populating our recently live image gallery online. We had some brilliant close-ups of the exterior from Nigel Kitto and a beautiful arty short from Dave Heaney, that can be seen below. On the theme of St Gluvias, don't forget to venture onto our online blogs, where Stephen Girt has recently published his research gathered from Penryn museum. All in all, exciting research and events are underway.
