Part 1 - The Road Bosworth: Following In The Footsteps of Richard III

from The Tudor History & Travel Show · host The Tudor Travel Guide

To commemorate The Battle of Bosworth, fought on 22 August 1485, I recorded a three-part podcast series 'on-location' in Leicester and at the battlefield site. In this episode (Episode 1), we visit Leicester and visualise the medieval city as we go on a 'walk-and-talk tour of some of the most important sites connected to Richard's time in Leicester before the battle. In Episode 2, we visit the battle site to delve into the events that unfolded there and the key figures involved. In Episode 3, we explore the aftermath of the battle and follow in Henry Tudor's footsteps as he brings Richard III's body back to Leicester, visiting both the initial site of his burial and that of his later reinternment in Leicester Cathedral.  To see a gallery of images associated with this episode, head to the associated show notes page here.   In the meantime, if you want to keep up to date with all the Tudor Travel Guide's adventures, as well as top tips for planning your own Tudor road trip, don't forget to subscribe to the blog via www.thetudortravelguide.com.
