Today's post by the wonderful @bec1926.bsky.social is out now over on The Tudor Notebook open.substack.com/pub/amymcelr...

Katherine of Aragon’s grave covered in wreaths a few days ago. I like to think she would have appreciated both the sentiment and the pomegranates….and the fact she is named as Queen of England 😉 Anne Stanhope who features in my new book began her life at court in Katherine’s service.

To mark the death of Henry VIII on this day in 1547, @bec1926.bsky.social has written a post over on The Tudor Notebook. If you're more interested in the birth of his father, Henry VII, on this day in 1457, then I recommend @nathenamin.bsky.social post! open.substack.com/pub/amymcelr...

I’m so excited to be working with the amazing @amymcelroy.bsky.social on this 😊

Just stunning - I’ve been on the trail of some jewels this week and Elizabeth I was literally the queen of them.

Stunning 😊

I’m all over the place this week - it’s cold out but beautiful 😊

Doing some archival research today and could not agree with this statement more 😭

Such a beautiful seal

I’m looking for info on Eaton Tregoes during the medieval period - can anyone help? I’m already using the duchy of Lancaster records.

Wow after gaining so many followers I thought I’d better introduce myself - I’m an archaeologist, historian focusing on LGBTQ and womens history and author. My latest book is on the wives of Edward Seymour tbp March 2025 and I’m currently searching for romans in Norfolk 😊

Continuing the Norfolk theme - Castle Rising - site of Queen Isabella’s confinement.

Stunning castle acre priory - one of the most complete ruins of a Cluniac monastery in existence. Founded in 1090 by William de Warenne.

Currently listening to @shakeuphistory.bsky.social and @bec1926.bsky.social discuss Anne Neville on Royals, Rebels and Romantics Podcast. Great fun listening to two friends have a chat but I want to join in 🤣 www.podbean.com/ea/dir-h2399...

Stunning sixteenth century Tudor embroidered Pomegranate 😊

Stunning sky above the Bomber command memorial #remember #history #London

Powerful and poignant. #colchester

Today marks the birth of Humphrey Duke of Gloucester - I have rather a soft spot for him, and find him fascinating. 😊 #history #medieval

Beautiful 😊 #history #archaeology

Early start this morning- it’s all looking very autumnal 😊#autumn

The Washington coat of arms on a wine bottle recovered from the wreck of the Gloucester.

The buttressing here was definitely not well constructed 🤣🤦‍♀️

I love this panel on the Battle of Lewes memorial. Yesterday was spent studying the priory records - where the king’s forces retreated and where in the 1800’s the bodies of hundreds of those killed were uncovered.

Absolutely fascinating research :)
