A Disregarded Queen of England: Here's the Tea

This week on Loaves to Legends, we have some tea for you! We’re exploring the life and experiences of a queen who is not often talked about, but who brought one of the largest dowries to England, and perhaps more importantly, has had a lasting impact on our culture!

Loaves to Legends is a podcast brought to you by Museum Manager Millie and Volunteer Gia, from Sandwich Guildhall Museum. It's a podcast exploring the history of Sandwich; a small town with a big history. Listen to us as we debunk the story surrounding the mysterious rat in our museum, expose the crimes and tribulations of a convicted murderer using the court documents in our collection and discuss the hugely important history of the Magna Carta.

Each week we will release one new episode, so make sure to follow Loaves to Legends on Spotify, Apple Music and YouTube, or check our website every week for links to all episodes, plus show notes and source references for every episode.
