A whistle stop day trip up to Leicester today to see the Richard III car park experience. It was recommended by some friends and was actually pretty good, striking a balance between historical depth and an accessible overview of the key events leading up to the Battle of Bosworth. The best bit was the forensic analysis of the skeleton and wounds inflicted, which was a bit gruesome but very interesting. Definitely worth the trip but you really need to have something else to go and see on the day; we stopped off at friends on the way, so made the most of the journey.
