England's rich, often turbulent history has left a powerful legacy in its buildings and monuments, pageantry and landscape. This imaginative exploration of our heritage shows how it can speak of major events and everyday life, gentle evolution and dramatic change.

From castles to cathedrals, battlefields to stately homes, England's past has shaped the country we inhabit today.
