A #Tudor Gem in #Winchcombe A thousand-year-old building with a dead #queen inside I wonder what #KatherineParr, #HenryVIII’s sixth and surviving wife, would have made of what people get up to on the grounds of #SudeleyCastle nowadays. Her former abode is a favourite of dog-walkers, outdoor games enthusiasts, and Boxing Day, post-prandial, impromptu ramblers. My party belongs to the latter group. This is a far cry from what this Grade I-listed castle, situated close to the medieval market town of Winchcombe, in Gloucestershire, is famous for. A curious fact that I only found out about recently is that Sudeley is the only privately owned castle in England to have a queen buried within its grounds, the aforementioned Katherine. Another interesting piece of information, and one I will certainly check out when I’m next here, is that a cannonball-shaped hole remains on the side of Octagon Tower. A souvenir from the English Civil War. Don’t thank me, thank Ollie and his Ironsides. With a colder temperature than on previous days but still mild for this time of the year, we turn around and head back. Maybe a spring trip beckons, if only to pay a visit to the Queen’s Garden, where over seventy varieties of roses can be enjoyed. I’m sure Katherine won’t mind. #Cuban #Immigrant #Londoner https://www.austinmacauley.com/book/cuban-immigrant-and-londoner #walking #visitbritain #visitengland #visitGloucesteshire #photography #VSCO (at Sudeley Castle and Gardens) https://www.instagram.com/p/Cmw2Fv5s2Ei/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

KATHERINE PARR
Book:
KATHERINE PARR
Don Matzat
2019
Just finished reading a book on Catherine Parr by Don Matzat. Parr was the last wife of Henry VIII and managed to keep her head. Her favourite color was crimson and even her toilet was crimson.
After Henry VIII died, she married Thomas Seymour, who was a p who was hitting on Princess Elizabeth (Elizabeth I) when she was a child. He was desperate for power. Parr died during childbirth and so did her child. Thomas attempted to kidnap King Edward, stupid idea, he lost his head.
This was a great book to read. Interesting, and gets to the point.

I haven’t been posting a picture from England for quite a while so I thought today I would do just that. The photo was taken at Sudeley Castle and Gardens two years ago in June, but it was a very gray, cool, and rainy day and the atmosphere suits an early autumn day like we have today, I think. I love this view towards the chapel of St. Mary in the background surrounded by the beautiful castle gardens. Besides its architectural beauty the chapel is very special because Katherine Parr, the last of the six wives, of King Henry VIII, is buried here. Sudeley Castle is notable for being the only private castle to have a queen buried on its grounds. Hope your Monday is going well and you have a great start into this week! #sudeleycastle #sudeleycastleandgardens #sudeley #katherineparr #organicgardendreams #england #cotswolds #winchcombe #gloucestershire (at Sudeley Castle) https://www.instagram.com/p/BoH8O2XF5QV/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1ivdz1d89eyx9

Went to see @sixthemusical in the Vaudeville Theatre last Saturday and it was sooo good! I got to see it with my sib sib @themagickalkat and it just made this theatre trip so much better! This was my first time seeing it since I saw it with the OG cast in the London Arts Theatre and this cast was just as good and we were lucky to see a super swing perform because the one playing Jane Seymour fell ill midway through the show, at least we got see both Jane actresses perform which is all that matters! Great show!! 😁 👑 👑 👑 #sixthemusical #sixmusical #henryviii #catherineofaragon #anneboleyn #janeseymour #anneofcleves #katherinehoward #katherineparr #vaudevilletheatre #musical #musicals #theatrekid #theatrenerd #theatregoer #musicaltheatre #musicaltheatrefan #musicaltheatrenerd #musicaltheater #theatrefan #theatre #westend #westendtheatre #westendlondon (at Vaudeville Theatre) https://www.instagram.com/p/Cgh7Qj_j8nC/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Finally getting round to watching this - heard it’s very different to other Tudor adaptations on TV and in film, so looking forward to seeing how it pans out! #becomingelizabeth #elizabethi #aliciavonrittberg #edwardvi #oliverzetterstrom #maryi #romolagarai #janegrey #bellaramsey #jessicaraine #katherineparr #tv #starzplay #tudors #historygirls https://www.instagram.com/p/Cfrwop1MgXD/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

I totally forgot I had this #nailpolish. #KatherineParr from @aengland_official’s #Tudoresque collection is stunning. It’s a beautiful shade of blue with some #holo in it which lends a dreamy quality. I also cut my nails short to give it a much neater appearance. I love this polish and I wish I more of it on hand! #notd #nailpolishaddict #athomemanicure #selfcare #nailcare #nailsofinstagram https://www.instagram.com/p/B2GUErXAXXI/?igshid=1aljna1riu4o5

This book. 2 ⭐️⭐️ at first I was super excited to get into it, it started promisingly. But midway through something beyond ridiculous and fickle happened. But it had its interesting moments. Still, underwhelming because it could've been much more effective in its drama. Oh well 🙄 #bookish #historicalfiction #bookgirl #bookandcandle #bookdragon #katherineparr #bookflatlay #history #suzannahdunn

FIREBRAND
2023
In Tudor England, Katherine Parr reluctantly agrees to become the sixth wife of the tyrannical King Henry VIII. Her consent to marry him carries great personal risk, given her predecessors are either vanquished, beheaded, or dead. Perceived as a threat by Henry's courtiers, they start to cast doubts about her fidelity and turn the increasingly paranoid king against her.
