Welcome to our Academy course – Tudor life with Ruth Goodman
What was life in the 16th century like for ordinary people? In this seven-part video series, social historian Ruth Goodman takes viewers on a tour of the Tudor period, exploring what people ate and drank, how they worked, what they wore, and even how they thought about love and marriage.
Filmed on location at Plas Mawr – an Elizabethan townhouse in Conwy, North Wales, now in the care of Cadw – this series with Ruth Goodman looks beyond the royals who often dominate the headlines, and considers the everyday routines of those living in England and Wales in the Tudor era.
