Stop 2

Magna Carta originated in 1215 as a peace treaty between King John and a group of rebellious barons
The original document was written in Latin on parchment made from animal skin

Also a chance to walk in the field of Magna Carta: Runnymede, the meadow where history was made

The name didn't emerge until the document's re-issue in 1217. It became known as 'The Great Charter' to differentiate it from the smaller 'Charter of the Forest' issued at the same time
the founding fathers of America turned to Magna Carta for inspiration and guidance when they drew up the US constitution, and so they celebrate the Runnymede parchment.

Eton College

Eton College is one of the most prestigious high schools in the world. ... In addition to actors and royals, the school is also known for educating several future Prime Ministers, including David Cameron and incoming prime minister Boris Johnson.
