Summary
[edit]
| Description |
English: Shotesham village sign stands on the edge of the green below the north side of All Saints parish church located on The Street in the village of Shotesham, Norfolk, England. The sign depicts a wagon with three occupants, Henry Howard the Earl of Surrey, his wife Frances de Vere and their son Thomas Howard, 4th Duke of Norfolk, depicted as an adult. In 1539 as the entourage was passing through the village, his wife went into labour and had a son in a local farmhouse and so Henry Howard, the Earl of Northampton, was born in Shotesham. Henry went on to hold various posts under King James 1 and died a wealthy man in 1614. He founded 3 charitable hospitals or alms houses, the one at Greenwich was to accommodate “eight Shotesham bachelors or widowers under the terms of the founder’s will.” The Trinity at Shotesham is an off-shoot of the Greenwich hospital built locally in 1885, so that local beneficiaries of the charity did not have to leave the village and go and live in Greenwich |
