Tudor Royal Progresses

[4] Henry VII traveled widely in England in his first few years as King, largely to consolidate his rule after the Wars of the Roses.

[14] After bidding goodbye to Francis Henry and Katherine then met with Charles and his aunt Margaret of Austria, Duchess of Savoy at Gravelines on 10 July.

There they concluded a separate treaty of friendship and agreed not t make any new agreements with the French king for two years on 14 July, before Henry and Katherine returned to England.

[18] ​The court left London for a tour of the north of England and arrived in York, via Lincoln, on 16 September.

Ultimately James V did not arrive and so the royal entourage repaired to Leconfield to continue the evaluation of the fortifications at the port of Hull.
