Founded in the late 11th century after the Norman conquest of England, the town of Ludlow is critical to Medieval history.

In this episode, Matt speaks to the Resident Archaeologist at Ludlow Castle, Leon Bracelin, about his favourite finds. They delve into the fine details of the lives of former residents of Ludlow for a remarkably close look at Medieval England.
