In this blog for @ihr_history I consider the interesting career of Laurence Swarfeld, an Antwerp Haberdasher who moved to London in the 1460's and subsequently became a representative for the Merchant Adventurers in Antwerp.
In the latest #OnHistory blog, Eliot Benbow continues his work on cross Channel connections in the London Custom Accounts as part of an IHR Internship. In this post he examines the career of Antwerp native and adoptive Londoner, Laurence Swarfeld.

IHR intern Eliot Benbow looks at 'particular' customs accounts, which recorded immense detail about the goods and practices of trade, giving an unparalleled insight into the medieval material world...

It has been a real pleasure working with @dr_j_r_c and the IHR (@ihr_history) on this internship. This blog focuses on a subject close to the heart of my research, the importing of cheap stuff into later-medieval London.🙂
This #OnHistory blog provides an update on progress with @CHPPC's project exploring the potential of analysing London’s medieval customs accounts digitally. Here Eliot Benbow writes about undertaking proof-of-concept work as part an IHR Internship.

For over 300 years, Londoners would flock to the shrine of Thomas Becket, often returning with a pewter badge as a keepsake. Now we're illustrating Becket's extraordinary life through our collection of pilgrim badges in a new #Becket2020 display. https://t.co/Qr4grdjhWc
