Lots of people seem to never visit them, yet expect them to be kept in perfect condition for memories or as part of a community. How is this meant to be funded? #UKHistory #ChurchBuildings #Funding #Charity #Community

And largely emerged from within the ruling classes of the British empire; one of the most evil empires in history. We don't even have words for the scale of mass murder the British employed or the expropriation of entire continents.
This ought to make everyone suspicious about those ideologies, eh?

Weird.
You'd have thought that the usual suspects would have been all over that anniversary like a rash. 🤔

Amongst my interests is #standingbuildingarchaeology, so I had to take photos of #Preston's old #Windmill. Note the chilly, fortified police station in the background.
