Gone Medieval Podcast on The Abbey
Discovering Bury St Edmunds
The historic cathedral town of Bury St Edmunds in Suffolk may well be familiar to listeners to Gone Medieval – perhaps from our episode ‘Saint Edmund: England’s Lost King’ or the town’s mention during our hunt for the ‘Viking Great Heathen Army’ on Dan Snow’s History Hit. In its heyday, Bury St Edmunds served as a significant and life-changing place of pilgrimage. In this episode of Gone Medieval, Cat is on location, exploring Bury St Edmunds’ landmarks, including what was one of the richest and largest Benedictine monasteries in England. She’s joined by archaeologist Adrian Tindall, Chair of the Bury St Edmunds Association of Registered Tour Guides.
