London, the capital of England and the United Kingdom, is a 21st-century city with history stretching back to Roman times. At its centre stand the imposing Houses of Parliament, the iconic ‘Big Ben’ clock tower and Westminster Abbey, site of British monarch coronations. Across the Thames River, the London Eye observation wheel provides panoramic views of the South Bank cultural complex, and the entire city.

The 14th century church of St John the Evangelist originally consisted of a nave, chancel vestry and north and south aisles, each with its own porch and doorway. Its appearance is very different today largely as a result of the sudden collapse of the tower on 28th April 1948, an event which destroyed both the nave and south aisle. Much of the building was saved when a wall was built across the west end of the chancel in its place to create a smaller, church from the former chancel. The attractive remains now appear as a group of ecclesiastical buildings in a garden complete with what appears to be a cloister along the north wall more typical of Italy than Norfolk! Of particular importance is the Bedingfield Chapel. This Chantry Chapel was founded in 1496 and contains two terracotta tombs that Mortlock & Roberts describe as “the finest of their type in England” The chapel is redolent of the English Catholic Church on the eve of the Reformation. Of real fascination is that this chapel retained its treasures through the vandalising periods of both the Reformation and the Commonwealth. The church retains some 14th & 15th century glass. Of particular note are the 14th century prophets located in the South chancel.

Built at the point where the regions of Anjou, Poitou and Touraine meet, the royal fortress of Chinon is located in a key strategic position that has been fought over since Antiquity. From its rocky promontory, it overlooks the surrounding area and has played a key role over centuries of history revealed to us today by its towers, royal residence and ramparts. Although the site has been lived in since antiquity, it only started to gain prominence from the 10th century onwards under the counts of Blois and Anjou. The location had always been a strategic one, since the occupants could view the whole territory from these heights. Major changes were made in the 12th century, with the construction of Fort Saint-Georges, the Château of Le Milieu and Fort Coudray. Henry Plantagenet of England chose Chinon as the continental capital of his empire. Defensive modifications were carried out in the 13th century during the war that opposed the Plantagenets and the Capetians, a war that was won by French King Phillip Augustus who reclaimed the fortress after nine months of siege. Touraine thus became French royal land, and remained so for centuries. New walls were built around Fort Saint-Georges and defensive towers were later added, mainly around the Fort de Coudray. During the 14th century the fortress was an important stronghold in the kingdom, and it was here that the Templar dignitaries were imprisoned and interrogated before they were judged and burned to death in Paris. During the 15th century France was occupied by the English, leading the Dauphin to flee Paris and seek refuge in Chinon, which became his primary residence. It was during this period that the suites underwent their last alterations and played host to a major moment in French history, when Joan of Arc came to meet the king in his apartments to convince him of her good faith and ask him to give her the army to break the siege at Orleans. In the 17th century, the fortress was abandoned for more modern châteaux, and its old stones lay dormant until 1840, when the building was listed as a Historic Monument. Since the beginning of the new millennium, the fortress has been subject to a massive restructuring project and major archaeological digs, while the ramparts and residences have been renovated to create a new visit route. After more than a thousand years of history, the fortress remains fully anchored in the modern day thanks to the new technology it has embraced, with videos, sound recordings, multimedia stations and iPads. Numerous interactive devices will accompany you on your visit, adapted for all audiences. The fortress has even taken on the unusual challenge of organising an Escape Game within its historic walls.

The Saint-Martin de Candes collegiate church is a former collegiate church located in Candes-Saint-Martin in the west of the French department of Indre-et-Loire , in the Centre-Val de Loire region . A first church, dedicated to Saint Maurice , was built by Saint Martin in one of the first rural Tours parishes that he founded and where he died in 397. It later became a pilgrimage church , even in the absence relics of the saint. In 1050, the church of Candes is mentioned as " collegiate " and its chapter has twelve canons . The old Saint-Maurice church being ruined, the current Saint-Martin de Candes church was built between 1175 and the middle of the 13th century . The work is spread over several decades, a relatively modest period given the importance of the building, whose architecture is largely inspired by the Gothic style of the West . It is characterized by a very rich carved decoration which adorns its transept and its nave but, above all, by a monumental porch open on the north side of the latter. The addition, in the 15th century after the Hundred Years War , of devices making this collegiate church one of the rarefortified churches of Touraine, reinforces its singularity. However, this did not prevent it from suffering serious damage during the Wars of Religion (in 1562 and 1568). Two earthquakes , causing major damage just over a century apart (1711 and 1840), required large-scale repair and reconstruction campaigns, but the restoration work started in the second half of the 19th century are very severely criticized: some historians have even spoken of "vandalism". However, it is still considered "the second most beautiful religious building in Indre-et-Loire after the Saint-Gatien cathedral in Tours " . Since the French Revolution, Saint-Martin de Candes has lost its collegiate status, even if this denomination persists in everyday language; it remains a parish church . The study of this building, the chronology of its construction, its architecture and the interpretation of its decoration, which is particularly complex, is still in progress at the beginning of the 21st century : the written sources on which to rely are rare. and the stages of its construction, intertwined in space as in time, are difficult to interpret. The collegiate church, which received the visit of Prosper Mérimée in 1836, is classified as historical monuments by the list of 1840 . Several elements of its furniture ( high altar and its tabernacle , statues, paintings, bell) are also protected .

A Short History of the Fort Harwich Harbour, at the mouth of the River Orwell, has always been the best safe haven for large ships between the rivers Thames and Humber. The rivers Orwell, Stour and Deben stretch several miles inland and were ideal highways for trade and raiders. Landguard Fort dominated the navigable channel on the northern bank of the River Orwell, whilst the Redoubt at Harwich guarded the harbour entrance along with a large battery at Shotley. There have been a number of fortifications built on Landguard Point over the years. In 1543 Henry VIII had two blockhouses built which rapidly deteriorated, so in 1552 the guns were returned to the Tower of London. In 1628, a new Fort was built of earth revetted with wood. It was square with a bastion on each corner. In 1666, under Charles II, repairs were completed and a brick wall constructed around the Fort. In 1667, during the second Dutch War, on the orders of Admiral de Ruyter, 1500 Dutch marines (musketeers, pikemen, sailors (as grenadiers) and small cannon) landed at Cottage Point (now Cobbolds Point) and under the command of Colonel Thomas Dolman (an English officer who had served with Cromwell and, like many professional soldiers, had changed sides) attacked the Fort from the landward side. The Duke of York and Albany's Maritime Regiment of Foot, commanded by Captain Nathaniel Darell, repulsed the Dutch assault.

Ickworth was home to the Hervey family for just over five centuries, 1432 - 1956. However, the Rotunda as we know it has only been around for the last 200 years or so. Previously the family lived in a Tudor manor house beside Ickworth church which eventually fell into decay through lack of upkeep and had to be demolished. The building of the Rotunda began in 1795 but it wasn't completed until 1841. Its design was the vision of the Earl-Bishop, who only lived long enough for the exterior to be completed. The interior was an empty shell and the curving corridors and wings were just a few feet off the ground. It was left to the Earl-Bishopu2019s son, the future 1st Marquess of Bristol, to make what he could of his fatheru2019s extraordinary plan and to do start work on restoring the Earl-Bishop's collection which had been confiscated by Napoleonic troops in 1798. The Rotunda basement, now restored to its 1910 appearance, offers a real insight into what it was like to live and work in this extraordinary place.

Dunwich is a tiny little village on the Suffolk Coast. Blink and you’ll miss it. But it wasn’t always this way. It has a fascinating history and despite being barely a village now, it used to be the capital of the Kingdom of the East Angles (in Anglo Saxon times). Up until the 13th century, it was a thriving international port and one of the largest towns in England. In 1286, a great storm struck the coast of East Anglia and then another one in 1287. The coastal erosion suffered due to the storms was huge. During the 14th century there were a succession of similar storms and the end came in 1362 when an enormous storm tide swept across the British Isles and wiped out what was still remaining of Dunwich.

The Mid-Suffolk Light Railway, known affectionately as 'The Middy', was a classic case of a rural railway that never paid its way. Built in the Edwardian era, it was a late-comer to the railway scene, at a time when mechanized transport was making an appearance on the roads. It effectively went broke before it opened but still managed to struggle on for almost 50 years! This fine example of quirky English history is remembered in Suffolk's only railway museum, also called the Mid-Suffolk Light Railway Co., which is dedicated to keeping alive the memories of the Middy by conserving historical documents as well as preserving the hardware which goes to make up a working railway. The collection of rolling stock is heavily biased towards the Great Eastern Railway, being the mainline railway with which the Middy connected at Haughley and our passenger carriages all date from the 19th Century.
