Lords of the Manor & Leigh Hall Leigh-on-Sea

#leighonsea #History #essex

Welcome to the Leigh on Sea History Channel where we walk the seashore of the past. In this video we look at the Lords of the Manor, discover the connection between the Old Town and Anne Boleyn, before uncovering the long-vanished Manor House Leigh Hall that was demolished in 1907. If you enjoy this content, please consider subscribing and giving me a like. All music on this channel is my own.
