What does a Blacksmithing Lecturer from Holme Lacy College have in common with Viking shipbuilders from over 1,000 years ago?

This summer, Holme Lacy College's Rowan Taylor travelled to Denmark to help recreate a Viking-age anchor using traditional methods and materials alongside an international team of experts.

Joined by colleagues Mischa Kunkel and Ernestas Jakubauskas, the project offered a rare chance to bring history to life through hands-on research and craftsmanship.
