The #Tudors also fragranced their hair & moustache too
For the poor we have #CardinalWolsey to thank for something we recognise today, an orange studded with cloves
Easy to make, hang it up!
It will smell sweet for several months
Did you ever make a pomander?

Happy publication day to Alison Weir for her wonderful novel on Cardinal Wolsey. I was lucky enough to receive an advanced copy - it’s her best novel yet (and all her novels are good!). Sorry I couldn’t make it to today’s launch! #alisonweir #thecardinal #cardinalwolsey #tudor #tudors

If, like me, you have post- #WolfHall blues, why not visit Hever Castle’s incredible art collection and stand face-to-face with breathtaking 16th-century portraits of all the main characters, from #ThomasCromwell & #CardinalWolsey to #AnneBoleyn & #ThomasMore?

On this day, 29 November 1530, Cardinal Thomas Wolsey died at Leicester, probably cheating the axeman!
Read about it on my substack post:
