UNTIL Thursday 18th April

The Sex and the Tudors talk will take place at Bramall Hall

This lecture, given by medical historian Lesley Smith, is a rip-roaring tumble through the sexual exploits of the Tudors. Not just Henry VIII had a good time - according to records, so did a lot of other people. Contraception, conception, prostitution and gay sex feature in this engaging and highly entertaining lecture.

Not suitable for those who shock easily or have a nervous disposition! Adults only, aged 18+.

This event takes place on 18 February, from 7pm at Bramall Hall. Find tickets HERE.
