  3. Number 3: Chirk Castle: Exploring Seven Centuries of History

    Here is a show notes page accompanying this on-location podcast episode, recorded at Chirk Castle, which stands on a hill overlooking the Ceiriog Valley, above the meeting point of the Rivers Dee and Ceiriog near the English border in north-east Wales. Built between 1295 and 1310 on the orders of James of Saint George for Edward I, Chirk formed part of Edward's chain of castles designed to secure his conquest of Wales. Together with nearby Caernarfon Castle, Conwy Castle, and Harlech Castle, it helped establish English control over the region.

  4. Number 4: Raglan Castle: From Fortress to Palace

    Here is a show notes page accompanying this on-location podcast episode, recorded at Raglan Castle in Wales. Unlike many earlier Welsh castles built primarily for war, Raglan was designed as both a fortress and a luxurious residence. Its distinctive polygonal towers, grand gatehouse, and moated Great Tower ("Yellow Tower") make it architecturally unique. Particularly interesting to Tudor enthusiasts, Raglan Castle played a significant role in the upbringing of the future Henry VII.

  5. Number 5: Within the Tower Walls: Commemorating Anne Boleyn

    In this episode of The Tudor History And Travel Show, we travel to the Tower of London, whose ancient walls imprisoned some legendary inmates, including perhaps the most famous of all, Queen Anne Boleyn. Joined by Assistant Buildings Curator, Alfred Hawkins, we explore some of the well-known, and much less well-known, nooks and crannies of this notorious fortress/palace and prison. This episode features exclusive material that was previously available only to members, now shared with everyone as part of this special commemoration of Anne Boleyn. Some references within the episode relate to events that have since passed, reflecting the original recording date — although, of course, the Tudor stories themselves are timeless. To see a gallery of images associated with the places we discuss in this episode, head to the associated show notes page and blog here.
