Fulham Palace
From 704 AD to 1973, Fulham Palace served as the home of the Bishop of London and, as one of the oldest working estates in London, played a significant role in feeding the Bishop and their household as well.
This talk will take you on a whistlestop tour of the diet of the Bishops of London from the medieval period through to the 19th century. Give it a listen and look forward to hearing about the earliest turkey found in London, Bishop Compton’s exotic penchant for spicy salads, and how an unfortunate grape incident endangered the life of Queen Elizabeth I.
