Episode 44 of the Counties of England podcast covering the life of William Shakespeare, the facts about Warwick Castle and the inspirations JRR Tolkien took from Warwickshire for his novels.

This podcast was written, edited and narrated by me, Finn Gray. It is a year-long project I am tackling for my silver Duke of Edinburgh skills award. Further details about each of the counties can be found on my website: https://www.countiesofengland.co.uk

I upload transcripts, maps of the counties and information I didn’t have room for in the podcast. Most weeks I use information from Matthew Engel’s excellent book: ‘Engel’s England’ (Profile Books, 2014).

Music is from Tribe of Noise and the track I use at the start and end of each episode is ‘Tiny People’ by Magnus Moone.
