Tudor Treasures Of The North: A Visit To Hoghton Tower

Here is a show notes page accompanying this episode, recorded at Hoghton Tower in Lancashire, originally constructed in the 1560s–70s, during the reign of Queen Elizabeth I, by Thomas Hoghton. Built on a commanding hill with panoramic views over the Ribble Valley, the building combines defensive medieval architecture with the grace and symmetry typical of the Tudor Renaissance style.
