Progresses: Royal Courts on the Move in Tudor and Stuart England via Gresham College

The image features a grand, classical building with a symmetrical facade, large windows, and a central entrance, set against a backdrop of lush green trees and a fountain. The building is likely a historical royal residence, reflecting the architectural style of Tudor and Stuart England. In the foreground, a fountain sprays water into a reflective pool, surrounded by neatly trimmed hedges and trees. The sky is partly cloudy, adding to the serene atmosphere. Overlaid on the image is text in bold white letters on a black background, reading "PROGRESSES: ROYAL COURTS ON THE MOVE IN TUDOR AND STUART ENGLAND" and "SIMON THURLEY," indicating the subject matter and author of the content. The text is framed by an orange border, with the logo "AVR G" in the top right corner, suggesting the image is part of a presentation or publication related to historical royal courts in England.</p> <p>Provided by @altbot, generated privately and locally using Ovis2-8B

 Most summers Tudor and Stuart monarchs took their court on an extended progress round the home counties staying at their own palaces and the houses of their courtiers. The cost and impact of hundreds of people, their horses and servants, was considerable; for the aristocratic hosts a royal visit was a momentous event.

This lecture draws on new research to reveal who they benefited, their impact on the economy, the landscape and on architectural ambition.
