Ashley and Lucy both gave papers for the Saints and Sinners panel, titled ‘Saints, Sinners, and Something in Between: Ambiguous Women and the Instability of Patriarchal Historiography in Walter Bower’s Scotichronicon’ and '"Sum men profit and sum to scaith”: Exploring Older Age and Masculinity in Medieval Scotland’ respectively.

They also had the opportunity to try out a manual printing press at Bristol Common Press - a brilliant hands-on addition to a very busy conference schedule!
