Still time! 👇🏼
Thrilled to be part of this really exciting project funded by the Leverhulme Trust! A lot still to be uncovered on the practices of rural resistance in the Scottish Highlands, starting with the wealth of Scottish estate papers...
📣Thrilled to be joining Bluesky conversations with my most recent publication on Scottish midwifery! Many thanks to @sshmedicine.bsky.social and @sgsah.bsky.social!!

Excited to share I've signed a contract to publish my (first) book!
"The Politics of Land in the post-Culloden Highlands" will revisit the history of the Forfeited Annexed Estates (1745-1784) as a key turning point in the history of the British "land question", land management, and public policy
Pleased to announce my appointment as a Lecturer in the University of Glasgow's new cutting edge Poisoning Of Minds department, thanks to Kemi for her support for our research
Thank you again for coming and sharing your insights! Would love to get recs on epistolary strategies etc if you have any! Also, can't get over your complaints about the hot weather, it's SO cold in Harris today 😭
Hi Claire, nice to see a familiar face from the other (apparently sinking) place!
Hi Katie, big fan of yours on Twitter! I'm based in Harris just now after a stint in Lewis (housing struggles, you know how it is). Would love to visit Islay when I get the chance!
Hello bluesky! Just finishing a PhD w the Uni of Glasgow on 18th c. historical geography of the Highlands and Islands & am interested in histories of land use, mapping, community histories and heritage. After 8 years in Glasgow, I moved to the Hebrides over a year ago and haven't looked back since!
