Westhorpe village sign
The sign has an interesting history behind it. The crown of King Henry VIII surmounts the sign and a Tudor Rose is the main subject. Charles Brandon 1st Duke of Suffolk, being a close friend of Henry VIII, was dispatched to France to bring back Henry’s young sister Mary, after her husband the King died. To Henry’s extreme annoyance they married (having been childhood sweethearts), in Paris, without his consent. After it all calmed down and Brandon had been fined £24,000 for his misdemeanour, the couple built and moved into Westhorpe Hall. Mary, who preferred the title the Queen of France, bore Brandon four children, but died at Westhorpe Hall on 25th June 1533 aged just 37. The hall was eventually demolished around the mid 1760s, and little remains in the village except a proud history. https://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/6783822
