In a second episode considering abandoned places in Bedfordshire, Nat explores the devastation caused by the Black Death in the 14th century. This includes the myths and legends which grew up around the plague, as well as the villages and settlements left in ruins. Cainhoe Castle near Clophill is one example Nat explores. The site is now part of a nature reserve (Clophill Lakes) and Nat chats with Daniel Bowles from the Green Sand Trust to learn more about the castle, it’s origins and why it was abandoned. Nat then also explores the lost settlement of Kinwick near Biggleswade and how a 13th century murder holds clues to where it was situated. Old Linslade is another Bedfordshire village which was changed forever by the black death which Nat explores. There’s some exciting news from the world of genetics which also sheds light on why some were struck down by the black death whilst others survived. Thank you to Daniel and Kayte from the Green Sand Trust for their help and expertise.
