What's on in Heads Nook

Cumbria, England

Share:X / TwitterFacebookWhatsApp

Book clubs, bingo, and the occasional village fête that's surprisingly well organised — Heads Nook punches well above its weight for local events, and Cumbria's all the better for it. You'll find everything from craft workshops the kids won't stop asking about to open mic nights that are genuinely worth staying up past nine for. The big listings sites have never heard of half these venues, which is their loss and your gain. Parish council listings, community centre noticeboards, pub websites we've had to zoom in on to read properly — we've checked them all so you don't have to.

Read and Chat

Read and Chat 11am – 12.30pm on the fourth Friday of the month This is a social group open to anyone who wishes to get out of the house, meet new people, and discuss books and stories. There are no set novels, genres, or styles of book. There is no snobbery – Shakespeare is not essential reading (although, bring him along if you wish!)! We each just bring along a book that we have been reading. We discuss fiction, non-fiction, biographies, podcasts, and audiobooks. The more variety, the more interesting the conversation. It’s also a great spot to pick up recommendations for your next read! People who read Braille are welcome. £2 per person – includes refreshments. No booking required just pop in and join in…

Cafe Scientifique - Mapping the Past on the Present

Mapping the Past on the Present – The use of GIS in archaeology by Caron Newman MSc PhD FSA Synopsis Geographical Information Systems (GIS) are now part of many people’s digital lives, particularly online through applications such as Google Maps. GIS is a very important tool for archaeologists. Beyond the public image of archaeologists excavating, much of our work is done at the desk, analysing data to understand past landscapes. This talk will look at some of the ways in which GIS is applied by archaeologists to understand past human behaviour and its influence on the landscape at different scales, from individual sites to regional and national character. Biography. Now (mostly) retired, Caron Newman MSc PhD FSA has been an archaeologist for over 40 years. She has worked in several different sectors of professional archaeology, beginning in commercial companies in South Wales and the south of England, before moving to Cumbria over 30 years ago. She ran her own consultancy business, providing advice to local authorities, national agencies and individual clients, and she also worked for Historic England covering the Northwest region. From there, Caron returned to university in Newcastle to undertake a PhD on Mapping the Medieval and Post Medieval Landscape of Cumbria. Both during and after the completion of her PhD, Caron taught undergraduate and postgraduate students and undertook research projects until she left in 2021. Tickets from £4 booked in advance or £5 on the door.
