September 30 - A coronation procession for Mary I

September 29, 2019

On this day in Tudor history, Saturday 30th September 1553, Queen Mary I processed through the streets of London, from the Tower of London to Westminster on her coronation procession. The procession was a mile and a half long and must have been such a spectacle for the citizens of London. There were also pageants, wine flowing in the conduits, streets hung with tapestries, and a new queen to see.  Claire Ridgway, founder of the Tudor Society, shares details of that day, along with how Mary I was dressed for what must have been a triumphant day for her. You can see this podcast as a video at the following link:https://youtu.be/IvNqB9PTfp0 You can find Claire at:https://www.theanneboleynfiles.com https://www.tudorsociety.comhttps://www.facebook.com/theanneboleynfiles/https://www.facebook.com/tudorsociety/https://twitter.com/AnneBoleynFiles https://twitter.com/thetudorsociety https://www.instagram.com/tudor.society/ https://www.instagram.com/anneboleynfiles/
