It gradually became shorter until it eventually went out of fashion in favour of the smaller crescent shaped French Hood. After the frugal Court of the elderly King Henry VII, the older courtiers must have had quite a shock when the vivacious new teenage King spent a fortune in brightening the ‘old place’ up for himself and his young, exotic Spanish bride.

A service of thanksgiving at St Paul’s Cathedral was followed by banquets held in the King’s honour, with food and money provided for the poor so everyone (even those in prison) could partake in the festivities.
