Description

In this photograph, scaffolding covers part of the roof of the building and several of the windows are broken. Despite this, the garden is well manicured. Richmond Palace was erected c1501 by King Henry VII on the site of an earlier Shene Palace and manor house, and was a favourite royal residence of Queen Elizabeth I, who died there in 1603. It was gradually demolished in the years following the execution of Charles I in 1649, with its stones and timbers reused as building materials.
