The Astonishing Rise of England's Greatest Warrior King, Henry V. Join CCT and bestselling historian and broadcaster, Dan Jones, for an evening of compelling storytelling as he brings to life the remarkable story of Henry V — warrior king, military commander, and one of England's most iconic monarchs. This special event forms part of the Churches Conservation Trust's Annual Lecture series, where history and heritage meet. Dan will explore not only the dramatic events of Henry V's reign, including the legendary Battle of Agincourt, but also the cultural and religious world he inhabited — a world shaped by faith, ritual and the enduring presence of the parish church. As the national charity caring for historic churches at risk, the Churches Conservation Trust preserves sites that would have been familiar in Henry's time, many adorned with exquisite medieval wall paintings. |
