The real story of the Magna Carta
A talk by Dr Nick Barratt
Nick explores the background to one of the most important documents in British history – but how much do we know about the contents of Magna Carta, and how successful was it in addressing longstanding issues between the crown and its leading magnates?
Although we now see Magna Carta as the cornerstone of justice, that was not the most pressing concern that the rebel barons sought to tackle.
Please note this meeting is the THIRD Tuesday of the month.
