Show Notes

Here is a show notes page accompanying this on-location podcast at Layer Marney Tower in Essex, England. The eight-storey gatehouse is a towering structure and the tallest of its kind in Britain, standing at over 80 feet (24 meters). It is made of the classic red brick of the Tudor period, combined with intricate terracotta decorations, grand doorways, and large windows. Inside, fine wood panelling, grand staircases, and beautifully decorated rooms give an insight into how the gatehouse would have looked in its heyday.
