## Resource

In a quirky twist of history, Boston Castle in South Yorkshire, England — built in 1775 and named after the Boston Tea Party — is hosting a Fourth of July bash to celebrate America’s 250th birthday. The Earl who commissioned it, Thomas Howard, famously refused to fight the colonists and banned tea at his lodge, showing how American rebellion rippled across the Atlantic. This year, the castle is pulling out all the stops with a play about the Earl, a police band, and even a local American singing the Star-Spangled Banner — proving history’s echoes can surprise you, even in the most unexpected places.
