A Tudor Musician

Kings, Queens, Lords and Ladies would once have listened to music being played in the Great Hall at Old Woking Palace, maybe relaxing after a fine meal with oysters and roast boar.
More recently Palace visitors were entertained by musician and heritage professional Jez Smith who played a variety of reproduction Tudor instruments.  Perhaps Queen Elizabeth I heard similar music as she sipped her favourite mead!
Jez's music was really enjoyable and evoked the past in a fascinating way.

The Yeoman Archer

Mr Messett of the Yeoman Archers showed visitors to Woking Palace how Agincourt was won!
The longbow here was made by the archer himself.
The Yeoman Archers are a not for profit group who raise money for the Armed Forces.
