  • Summary

  • 🏰🌆🔍 Explore the legacy of England's city walls and their hidden histories in this fascinating podcast episode.

    We discuss cities where walls have left a lasting legacy including York, Chester, Berwick upon Tweed, Southampton, Exeter and London. We discover how these walls were once essential for defence and trade, and why they fell into decline over time. With just a few remaining walls, learn how English civic authorities made decisions about what historic features of their towns were worth preserving, and how walls have become an important part of the branding and tourism of historic towns.
