Reports on Projects - Directed by Helen Weinstein
REPORTS ON PROJECTS – DIRECTED BY HELEN WEINSTEIN
These web pages bring together reports on projects that Helen Weinstein has directed or supported. Helen is often asked for copies of these reports by colleagues working in the fields of public history in academia, in policy and funding bodies, across the media, museums, galleries, archives, libraries – it therefore seemed a good idea to have a place where all the materials are located!
These include reports from events and research projects that Helen Weinstein has directed, project managed or been involved with in her capacity as Director of Historyworks, Founding Director of IPUP, and also Helen’s roles on AHRC Steering and Advisory Committees. Please note that most of these are offered as PDFs, but all others link to webpages, blogs, #storify.

English Heritage Report
UNDERSTANDING CLIFFORD'S TOWER Report by Historyworks from the learning events "UNDERSTANDING CLIFFORD'S TOWER AND THE 1190 MASSACRE IN CONTEXTS" Here is a copy of the Report produced by Historyworks in 2015 published with colleagues John Oxley, City of York Archaeologist and Jeremy Ashbee, Head Curator, English Heritage, which is titled "Understanding Clifford's Tower and the 1190 Massacre in Contexts' which is free to download as a pdf here! Also, scroll below to find the summaries by Historyworks explaining the chronology of York Castle and Clifford's Tower. The Report for English Heritage is a summary of the speakers and learning from our York Castle gathering in 2015. We were very pleased to have a full house of 150 attending at both of the learning events about Clifford’s Tower and the wider contexts of York Castle area - organized for the afternoons of Sunday 25th January and Tuesday 27th January 2015. The talks were very informal but informative, and tea breaks gave opportunities to share information about York’s past & present. We are also very grateful for those participants, over 170 who completed our online survey which helps gain a deeper insight into public attitudes towards York heritage issues and the presentation and understanding of Clifford's Tower and the longer story of a Jewish presence in york from the 1100s to now. There are photos of the tours of Clifford's Tower & York Castle area here: https://www.flickr.com/photos/historyworks/sets/72157650702280165/ To view thumbnails provided by Historyworks to help with understanding the long history of Clifford's Tower, do scroll to the sections below:
