'A Handsome Little Town': a virtual tour of Bury St Edmunds with Adrian Tindall

Bury St Edmunds has been settled since Anglo-Saxon times, when a young King Edmund was martyred by Viking invaders and his shrine drew pilgrims from all over Europe.

This illustrated talk will take you on a tour of 1,000 years of Bury’s history, from monks and martyrs to Saxon kings and Tudor queens, from talking wolves and Magna Carta to Georgian Chic and Mr Pickwick.
