On 14th September 1495, Elizabeth died at Eltham Palace in Kent, at the age of three years and two months.

Six horses drew her hearse to Stangate and then across the river to Westminster, where the Prior and monks of Westminster met it to escort it to the Abbey. The hearse was placed in the choir with a cloth of black, fringed with red and white roses and lettered in gold "Jesus est amor meus". The next day after mass, her body was carried to the grave. Her tomb in Westminster Abbey is made from black marble. On top of the monument is a finely polished slab of black Lydian,...

When her travelling companion, Nancy Sparling, has an accident and hurts her leg, Vada assumes her name to avoid unwelcome attention and travels on with just her elderly maid, determined to make the most of her last chance to explore Bohemian Paris and the wonders of the City that she had heard and read so much about.

Soon they are deeply and uncontrollably in love, a love that is surely doomed by her deception, her betro...

THE WALTER SCOTT MONUMENT . This victorian gothic monument was built in 1841, to commemorate Sir Walter Scott. Scott was the author of the best-selling Waverley novels, who died in 1832. Designed by George Meikle Kemp, it was inspired by the Gothic architecture of the Borders Abbeys. The monument inspired the name of the nearby bridge, and Edinburgh Waverley Railway station. The tower is 200 feet 6 inches (61.11 m) high and has viewing platforms reached by a series of spiral staircases, giving panoramic views of central Edinburgh and its surroundings. The highest platform is reached by a total of 287 steps. The erection of the Scott monument came at a high cost to the stone masons involved. It was especially costly to the 'hewing masons' who were responsible for preparing the blocks, with their carvings and statues. This work was done in closed sheds, so that large quantities of fine dust were a continual part of their working environment. One contemporary observer says tha...

The Imperial Ambassador Eustace Chapuys described Jane Seymour as "no great beauty". But what she may have lacked in looks, she made up for in jewellery. We can see this in her famed portrait by Holbein; in it, she is wearing some of the most fabulous pieces from the queen’s jewel collection. Probably some of her jewellery came from her predecessors; we know that Catherine Howard would later wear some pieces that had belonged to Jane. In her portrait, she wears pearls and diamonds in gold on her headdress that match those around her neck, her waist, and the border of her square neckline. Jane’s inventory listed many jewelled buttons, and we can see some of them in her portrait, pinning her sleeves together. She also owned over 50 pairs of gold and pearl beads the description of which match some of those that hang from her waist. In her portrait, she wears a lavishly extravagant ouche, a pendant set with jewels that hangs down from her necklace; it is later seen on Catherine H...

  Bored with the Social world of London and the constant demands of the lovelorn Prince of Wales, the Marquis of Aldridge takes refuge at his remote country estate, Ridge Castle, deep in the 'Witch Country' of Essex. Riding through a village close to The Castle he comes upon a mob of villagers dragging the unconscious body of a young woman to the duck pond. Convinced she is a witch, they are bent on putting her to the ultimate test. If she drowns she is innocent. If she floats she is evil and must die! Rescuing the young waif and installing her at his castle, the Marquis is convinced that this raven-haired, blue-eyed beauty, whose name is Idylla, is far too lovely - too innocent - to be a witch. Nevertheless, he falls helplessly under her spell - and as he uncovers the murderous plot that brought her to him, he also discovers a love beyond anything he imagined possible.
