Berkeley Castle: The Death of Edward II - History, Hauntings & Medieval Folklore
Berkeley Castle has stood above the Severn Vale for nearly a thousand years. Behind its Norman walls lie stories of imprisonment, political betrayal, medieval superstition, and the mysterious death of King Edward II in 1327. In this episode, we explore the real history of the castle, the archaeology hidden within its stonework, the folklore that gathered around Edward’s final days, and the quieter ghost stories still connected to the old upper chambers and corridors today. This is not the legend people usually tell. It is the place beneath the legend.
