In today’s episode we travel back to the Middle Ages, to continue our day in the life series. There, we take a look at the daily responsibilities of one medieval baron who lived in the 14th century.

Richard le Scrope was a knight of the shire of Yorkshire, a soldier, and a courtier who served King Richard II of England. Let’s uncover some of the details of his day-to-day life, from a fictional first hand perspective based on what we actually know. Welcome to Medieval Madness.
