Medieval York through the Eyes of William Snawsell

William Snawsell was a key figure in fifteenth-century York, as a silversmith, alderman, City Chamberlain, Sheriff, Lord Mayor, and tenant of Barley Hall. Living through the reigns of four kings, William was at the crisis meetings following the death of Richard III, and was amongst the first to declare loyalty to Henry VII. By studying historical documents, genealogies, archaeology and buildings we can gain a fascinating personal perspective into medieval York. It is anticipated that this course will be held at the King’s Manor.
