Description

Honour was all important in Ireland in 1300 A.D. Unsurprisingly when a miller, Walter de Capella, insulted the mistress of John Thebaud it sparked a row between the two men. This row escalated and within a few short weeks a vicious and ultimately violent feud broke out. This podcast tells the story of the previously untold, hair-raising story of medieval honour, violence and justice...Support the show at Patreon.com/irishpodcast Join me on a tour - Dublinfaminetour.ie  For information regarding your data privacy, visit acast.com/privacy
