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

The Tudor History & Travel Show

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.
