The second marriage of King Henry VIII would change the course of British history, and this delightful short break in Kent draws on the insight and expertise of your Guide Lecturer, Dr Elizabeth Norton, to tell the turbulent and tragic story of the early 1530s in the most fascinating way, with a particular focus on the life of Anne Boleyn.
