Yet small glimpses remain to us of these Privy Gardens, revealing an intriguing snapshot into the private lives of the Tudor monarchs and the people who worked for them. Alexandra Stevenson is Curator of Archaeology and Historic Buildings. She shares with us her latest research exploring Elizabeth I's garden sanctuary - where herbs were grown, sweet-smelling waters were distilled, and where the Tudor queen may have bathed and relaxed away from the eyes of the court. Travel back to the Lost Tudor Gardens at Hampton Court and see the Wijngaerde Panorama of the Gardens from 1558. ## Actions - request_transcript: `POST https://stenobird.com/v1/public/podcasts/historic-royal-palaces-podcast-658204/episodes/elizabeth-i-s-lost-private-gardens/transcription-requests` — Idempotently request low-priority transcript generation for this episode. - read_markdown: `GET https://stenobird.com/podcast/historic-royal-palaces-podcast-658204/elizabeth-i-s-lost-private-gardens.md` — Read the agent-friendly Markdown representation of this episode resource.
