Did you know about the gate in York, associated with a queen consort of Scotland, and sister of Henry VIII. Today we're visiting Queen Margaret's Arch, which features in a poem from Polaris.

Died #OTD in 1437: Catherine of Valois, wife of Henry V of England
After Henry V died Catherine entered a relationship with Owen Tudor of Wales. Together they had five children.
Catherine's grandson Henry Tudor would be the first monarch in the Tudor dynasty; Henry VII
@AllEndlessKnot actually not Britain.
Scotland changed the date as did the rest of Europe, but the English believed it was a catholic plot to deprive them of 11 days of their life, so they resisted for several years. During this period historians have to be very careful, as travellers can seem to arrive at their destination a week before they have left England.
Two anonymous 17th Century ballads describing the purported evil deeds of Richard III, the murder of the Princes in the Tower, and the Battle of Bosworth Field, which was fought #onthisday in 1485.
A good example of Tudor propaganda.
A song of the Life and Death of King Richard the Third (to the tune of Who list to lead a soldier's life)
and
The most cruel murther of Edward the fifth, and his brother Duke of York, in the Tower; by their Uncle Richard Duke of Gloucester (to the tune of Fortune my foe)
From Richard Johnson's ballad miscellany, The Golden Garland of Princely Delights, 1620

To find out whether there was a Tudor transformation in terms of law, check out my new book - ‘A Historical Introduction to English Law: Genesis of the Common Law’: https://www.cambridge.org/gb/academic/subjects/law/legal-history/historical-introduction-english-law-genesis-common-law?format=PB
#OTD 1457, in the fortress of Pembroke Castle, a young woman, not yet 14 bore a son. The mother, Margaret Beaufort, was 2nd cousin to Henry VI and she named her son in his honour. She was also the widow of the king’s half-brother, Edmund Tudor, Earl of Richmond. It is unlikely that at the time of his birth, anyone foresaw that young Henry Tudor would become King Henry VII.

On the floor of St Peter and Paul’s Church in the Lincolnshire village of Stallingborough is this brass marker, it features William Ayscough and his wife Margery Hilyard. This couple were the grandparents of Anne Ayscough (Askew) who was burnt at the stake for her Protestant belief.
William Ayscough died in 1509, just a few years before the teachings of new religion began to take hold.
William was knighted in 1501 at the marriage of Prince Arthur to Catherine of Aragon.

#OTD 1496 d. Jasper Tudor, Earl of Pembroke & Duke of Bedford died. Jasper can probably take the lion’s share of the credit for his nephew, Henry VII's ultimate triumph in the Wars of the Roses. Second son of Catherine de Valois and Owain Tudor, Jasper had been favoured by his half-brother, Henry VI, and was unfailingly loyal to the House of Lancaster. http://bit.ly/259dT0g #tudor #henryvii #warsoftheroses #histodons #jaspertudor
