We look, too, at Plas Mawr, in Conwy, a remarkable example of a late Elizabethan townhouse that survives today as one of the finest restored houses of its kind.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eWe learn about the medieval Round Table in Winchester Castle and how the early Tudor monarchs exploited Winchester’s supposed Arthurian associations to strengthen their claim to the English throne and enhance their prestige on the international stage.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eWe consider Queen Jane Seymour’s role, during her brief queenship, as one of England’s largest landowners, using major new research recently published by Dr Elizabeth Norton. I also spoke with Elizabeth about her research on Jane Seymour, her education in archaeology, anthropology and history, and her work as a historian, author, broadcaster and historical consultant.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eSarah Morris, \u003ci\u003eThe Tudor Travel Guide\u003c\/i\u003e, takes us on a tour of the Tudor north-east, exploring magnificent cathedrals, formidable castles and the imposing strongholds of the Prince-Bishops and the Neville and Percy families.
