Margaret Tudor, Queen of Scots and ancestress of all British monarchs from 1603, depicted in stained glass (likely dating from the 1520s) in the chapel at The Vyne in Hampshire. In the care of @nationaltrust.org.uk #margarettudor #queenofscots #tudor #tudors #stuartdynasty

I was lucky enough to receive an advanced copy of Lying Abroad by Carol Chillington Rutter from @manchesterup.bsky.social

I very much recommend it. Here are my comments…
