A new look in Sir Walter's study for Raleigh 400

To mark the 400th anniversary of Raleigh’s death, his study in the newly re-presented Bloody Tower,  has been dressed to reveal the reality of 'high status' imprisonment. 

A combination of film, sound, graphics and tactile objects provide a candid insight into Raleigh’s time at the Tower, including his passion for poetry and science.
