Description

For the third and final course of our mini-series on feasts enjoyed at English Heritage sites through the ages, we’re joined by senior properties historian Dr Nick Holder and senior curator Kevin Booth to look back at the feasting and food preparation that took place at one of England’s biggest and best-preserved medieval manor houses: Gainsborough Old Hall. Discover who built the hall, who worked in its kitchens and the kings who came to dine here.
