One of the most important Tudor palaces no longer exists.
This is Richmond Palace, where Henry VII, Henry VIII, and Elizabeth I all celebrated Christmas.
It’s gone now… but its story isn’t.

A picture up the trunk of a tree pointing towards the sky. There are many branches which are very thin. There are lots of leaves in the tree. The sky is a pale grey which contrasts greatly with the darkness of the leaves.

This tree, on the edge of #RichmondPalace, is a great addition to this #foliagefriday. The contrast between the cloudy sky and thin branches is mesmerizing.

A picture of a blue insulated glove sitting on a park bench. The glove is in the bottom right of the picture with the bench framing the bottom and right sides. The background is of a nearly empty street in London with a grey sky.

Here is the first of, hopefully, many pictures involving lost gloves. This one was lost at #RichmondGreen. #OneGloveOneVoice #NoGloveNoLove #FindMeSomebodyToGlove #LoveWithaLittleG #RichmondPalace

"The Statue is of a trumpeter. I like this trumpeter as he makes funny faces while he blows his trumpet to greet visitors to the palace." - Bilal

29th December 1497
A fire broke out at Sheen Palace which destroyed most of the buildings. It is thought that the fire started in the Queen’s apartments.
King Henry VII rebuilt and renamed the new building Richmond Palace.
