19.30 – 21.30 27th January

An Evening with the Tudors

 

Step into the world of the Tudors with an engaging and accessible talk by historian Melita Thomas, exploring the lives of the people who shaped one of England’s most fascinating periods.

Drawing on her acclaimed work “1000 Tudor People,” this talk goes beyond the familiar royal figures to uncover the rich, human stories of Tudor society—from courtiers and clergy to ordinary men and women whose lives reveal the texture of the age.

Set within the historic surroundings of Buckden Towers—a site closely connected with figures such as Catherine of Aragon and Henry VIII—this promises to be an evening where history truly comes to life.

Enjoy a relaxed and friendly evening with drinks and cake available, hosted by the Friends of Buckden Towers.
