May 2025: Going to School in Medieval Fenland – Diane Calton-Smith

After imagining ourselves as a 14-year-old boy in June 1423, attending the Wisbech Grammar School which was held in the small room above the porch of the church of St Peter and St Paul, we followed him throughout the day in his school work and family and community life.

Diane brings to life the history and atmosphere of days gone by.
