Description

Nothing experienced in human history, before or since, eclipses the terror, tragedy and scale of the Black Death, the disease which killed millions of people in Medieval Europe.

The Scourging Angel tells the story of Britain immediately before, during and after this catastrophe.

Against a backdrop of empty homes, half-built cathedrals and pestilence-saturated cities, we see communities gripped by unimaginable fear, shock and paranoia.

By the time it completed its pestilential journey through the British Isles in 1350, the Black Death had left half the population dead.

Despite the startling toll of life, physical devastation and sheer human chaos it inflicted, Britain showed an impressive resilience.

Amid disaster many found opportunity, and the story of the Black Death is ultimately one of survival.
