Drift off with this slow, immersive bedtime story about a night inside a medieval manor house in fourteenth-century England, from the Martinmas supper and the order in which the household goes to bed to the night watch, the evening prayers and the quiet hours between the first and second sleep. Follow Dame Cecily and her family as the candles go out and the whole manor settles into the dark, with real medieval history woven gently through the narration. Dim the lights, get comfortable, and let this calm history for sleep carry you into rest.
