The Antiquary is a personal project by Allan Barton dedicated to sharing British history and culture and inspiring a wider interest in the past. Its content explores medieval Christianity, art, architecture and gothic buildings, alongside folklore, royal history, quirky traditions, historic places, and customs surrounding death and burial. The brand presents these subjects through an illustrated magazine, an engaging YouTube channel, and a blog featuring deeper explorations of historical art, architecture, and rituals.

The magazine is available in monthly, UK, international, and digital formats, offering readers informative content about Britain’s cultural heritage. The YouTube channel brings together videos on a wide range of historical topics in a straightforward, sometimes light-hearted style. Visitors can also browse an online shop featuring publications and historically inspired products, and find information about tours and events.

The Antiquary’s website provides reviews from readers and subscribers, information about Allan Barton and the project, and support for subscription, order, and digital issue enquiries
