View all →About This Event
Archaeologist Mathew Morris presents a talk at The Guildhall in Leicester exploring Leicestershire's real medieval outlaws.

The event will explore the true stories of medieval outlaws who lived in Leicestershire, delving into historical records to provide a deeper understanding of these figures. This will involve uncovering the complex realities behind the popular 'good' outlaw trope, providing insights into their lives that go beyond romanticized versions.
