THE PILGRIMAGE OF GRACE & THE LINCOLNSHIRE RISING
Wed 26 Feb 7.30pm
History Talks with Don Chiswell
The rebellion against Henry VIII during 1536-7 originated in Yorkshire and Lincolnshire. It was directed against the policies of the monarch (such as the dissolution of the monasteries and the effects of the enclosure of common land) and was to shake the very foundations of the Tudor dynasty. What were its aims and why did it fail after its initial success? What part did Peterborough play in its suppression?
