Several of the manuscripts in our Anglo-Saxon Kingdoms exhibition were digitised and described as part of our partnership with @laBnF, sponsored by The Polonsky Foundation.
You can read more about them here (go on, we dare you):

@friggenawesome This is indeed an amazing printed book. In return, here's an Anglo-Saxon astronomical manuscript, made in the 11th century. We think they're both very beautiful: enjoy!

"Just a spoonful of sugar helps the medicine go down
In a most delightful way"
This 11th-century recipe lists #SUGAR as one of its ingredients, maybe before that substance reached western Europe.
Now that's most delightful! #PolonskyPre1200

Completely agree with @ParkerLibCCCC : books make the best presents! This beautiful manuscript was a gift to the first king of England from his brother-in-law

In the early middle ages, blacksmiths, goldsmiths, silver smiths, etc were considered the most skilled craftsmen. Some became legendary figures. Seeing their incredible work at the Anglo-Saxon Kingdoms exhibition, you can understand why!
