  1. Glad you’re featuring Gainsborough Old Hall – I’m giving a lecture there next week. It’s a pity it’s off the main tourist track – if it was in London or York it would be a famous tourist attraction. A lovely house.

    Katherine Parr lived here with her first husband and Katherine Howard visited with Henry (and Culpeper) in 1541.

  2. Always happy to post a story about it! BTW, I might be up in that area next year, I’ll be in touch once my plans become more set.
