@5alexander.bsky.socialIdyllic Dorset, but it looks like the Mediterranean. Henry VIII's sister fort to Portland Castle. Protecting the deep water anchorage of Weymouth Roads. A deterrent for the Armada in 1588 but now a beautiful ruin, eroded by years of the salty sea wind.
@jarnopp.bsky.social'an excellent novel, psychologically astute and well-researched, and I can’t wait to read the next in the series.' - Review

@claireridgway.bsky.social"Henry VIII didn't divorce Catherine of Aragon or Anne of Cleves. Their marriages were annulled."
You've probably seen that correction.
But is "divorce" really historically inaccurate?
I look at the evidence in my latest YouTube video.
@thedudleywomen.bsky.social#OnThisDay (08 Sep) in 1560, Amy Robsart, the first wife of Robert Dudley, was found dead at the bottom of a flight of stairs, at Cumnor Place, Oxfordshire.
Suspicion immediately surrounded her death, although a coroner’s inquest later ruled it accidental. #Tudors #History
