Richard III's emblem the boar, is usually depicted as very fierce, but this kneeler, at the church in Middleham, depicts it as quite cuddly!

Today our members and guests will be treated to a talk about medieval cuisine for everyone who wasn’t nobility.In recent years we’ve learned from Richard’s body about the diet that he would have enjoyed as king, but what about his subjects?
It should be interesting!

Some of our members in Toronto made it to Sonja Drimmer ‘s excellent talk about coins. We heard about a common insult to Henry VI, how Edward IV changed the look,& arguably the meaning of coins during his reign, how coins wore out, the reason for clipping & so much more.It was a delight.
marcasNow then! At Christmas time I was at the Guildhall in York. Come along with me to see this amazing Medieval building!
