HENRY IV     1399 - 1413
House of Lancaster.
Henry was the eldest son of Johnof Gaunt and  married  Mary  Bohun.   His
claim to the throne had been most tenuous and his succession took place in
dubious  circumstances  following  thedeposing  and subsequent murder of
Richard  II.  Before this event Henry hadhad most of the noble qualities,
handsome,  an  active  knight,  a  musician,pious  and  an  accomplished
linguist.  Subsequently he seemed to have dwelton the great wrong done to
Richard  and he declined into a sick man at an early age.  It is true
that he
had many difficulties, he was for the first timefor any English  King,
closely
controlled by Parliament especially in financial affairs.  He had many
uprisings to deal with notably from the Welsh  under  their  educated
leader
Owen  Glendower.  At  one stage, the French sent troops to aid the Welsh
but
matters eased when Harlech Castle was taken following  a  siege. Henry
also
faced insurrections from English barons, including an encounter with  the
Earl
of Northumberland and his son Hotspur at Shrewsbury in 1403 when Hotspur
was
slain.  To add to his troubles,  the  Scots  harried  his forces  
virtually
throughout his reign.  It is to Henry's credit that the Kingdom survived
intact.  As Henry's health failed his son the  Prince  of Wales  was
drawn more
into affairs  of  state.   Shortly  after  having  a severe  fit  in
Westminster  Abbey,  Henry died on Friday 20th March 1413. He was buried
in
Canterbury Cathedral.

He had the following children:

In January 1649 Charles was brought to trial for treason, on the
grounds that he had fought against his subjects.... In early
1649, Parliament took the decision to try the King for waging
war against his kingdom and against parliament. The trial began
on 20 Jan in Wesminster Hall and was held in front of about 50
Members of Parliament. Throughout the trial, Charles stubbornly
refused to recognize the legality of the court. On 27 January
he was found guilty and sentenced to death by execution. The
sentece was carried out on 30 January.

WESTMINSTER ABBEY, LONDON It is hard to imagine Westminster at
the time of the Conquest, when it occupied an island site amid
the marshes that flanked the Thames. Since William the
Conqueror recieved the English crown here on Christmas Day 1066,
coronations have always been conducted in Westminster Abbey. An
earlier Saxon monastery was completely destroye by the Danes
during the eighth century. Wesminster's history as a
Benedictine house dates to its foundation by St. Dunstan in 959,
although it was Edward the Confessor who established its status
as the royal church of england following its consecration on 28
December 1065, just one week before his death. Henry III was
largely responsible for building the magnificent abbey church
that stands today, work on which began in 1245, favouring the
French Gothic style, which placed greater emphasis on height
than the particular English interpretation that had evolved by
then. Flying buttresses were used as a means of supporting the
height of French cathedrals, a technique deemed visually ugly by
English builders, who preferred to restrict the height and use
internal methods of support. Work on the new church advanced
rapidly, and it was reopened in 1269. Although much of the nave
was not completed until well over a century later, fortnately
the architect was content to follow the style of his
predeccessor, thereby maintaining the visual continuity.
Westminster Abbey is not merely a church of unsurpassed beauty
it is also the last resting place of English monarchs - from
Henry III in 1272 to George III in 1820. Without doubt, the
abbey's subline architectural achievement is the Henry VII
chapel, originally founded byt eh monarch early in the sixteenth
century with the intention of crating a shrine to Henry VI.
This plan never came to fruition and so the masterpiece of royal
mason Robert Vertue was adopted by its instigator for himself
and his queen, Elizabeth. The fan-vaulted ceiling is elaborately
decorated with the most complex tracery imaginable, the finest
example of that art form in England. Almost ever square ich of
the chapel seems to be adorned with some form of intricate
decoration and, although the overall effect can be almost
overwhelming, it remains a quite breathtaking piece of work.
The royal tomb in the chapel is the work of a Florentine
contemporary of Michelangelo, sculptor Pietro Torrigiano, who
was commisssioned to create the most moving, gilt-bronzed
effigies of Henry and Elizabeth. However, kings and queens are
not the only ones celebrated in death; the abbey houses the
Grave to the Unknown Soldier, a nation's tribute to those slain
during the First World War. Famous names from the art,
literature and science mingle with numberous outrageously
ostentatious memorials erected to mem

CHARLES  II                  1660  -  1685
House of Stewart.
Son of Charles I, he married Princess Catherine of Braganza in 1662.  
When  his
father's  cause was  lost  in  1646  he  went  to the Isles of Scilly then
Jersey and on to France. In 1650 he was crowned King of the  Scots  at  
Scone.
He  invaded England  in  1651  and  was  beaten  by Cromwell at the
Battle of
Worcester and after the battle hid in an oak tree.  With difficulty he
escaped
to France.  Returning to England in 1660 he was welcomed as King.  Plague
struck the country  in 1665  killing  over  60,000  in London alone and
in the
next year the Great Fire made 200,000 homeless.  That was not all, the
Dutch
Fleet sailed  up the  Medway  and  England  had to sue for peace.  After
the
Great Fire, Sir Christopher Wren built a new and better London. Charles
had St
James Park re-created  and  built Chelsea Hospital for old soldiers.  He
supported the sciences, founding Greenwich Observatory and  the  Royal
Society.  Boyle Halley and Newton are illustrious names of his reign and
Nell
Gwynn will be remembered  for  other reasons.  His Chief Minister was
Clarendon
who freed the Church of it's Cromwellian past.  Titus Oates raised  the  
alarm
of a Popish plot  and  many  Catholics  were  executed.  Charles  himself
was a
Catholic, certainly just before his death and probably before.  He had
many
mistresses and the future Duke of Monmouth was his  illegitimate  son.   
Of
twenty-six dukes  in England today, five are descendantson the wrong
side of
the blanket of Charles II.  His neice was married to William of  Orange,
as a
diplomatic measure.  He brought much needed eleganceto the land.  After a
last-minute conversion to Roman Catholicism, The Merry Monarch died on
Friday
6th February 1685 of uraemia and mercury poisoning.
