Buckfast Abbey and Saint Thomas More
This episode is probably best if watched as a video on Spotify or YouTube, but should also make sense by listening. I'll include a link to the images discussed. My visit to Buckfast Abbey was a surprise. My trusty guide Nigel did not tell me we would be stopping there but it turned into one of my best memories from my trip.

My Visit to Penshurst Place in Kent
Before you critique my pronunciation of the name, I am merely repeating what those there said and it was confirmed online as well - yes, you pronounce the S. :) This is a brief episode of one of the manor houses I visited during my first week in England. I interviewed Dr. Linda Porter at the café before doing a tour of the place myself. It is a beautiful place, and I will also share my pictures with you once I get them organized a bit better -be sure to head over to my website and subscribe so you can see all the pictures there. If you previously subscribed please do so again because I had to do a website change which removed all previous subscribers. -- Commercial-free for patrons! -- Hosted by: Rebecca Larson Credit on history to: https://www.penshurstplace.com/
