History & Context

The Cornish Rebellion After 500 years the Cornish plan to commemorate the march to London by their disgruntled ancestors who complained about the taxes imposed upon them. 500 years ago Cornwall was a distant part of the kingdom more easily accessible by ship than overland. The few people who visited Cornwall would have found a motley mess of small, impoverished towns, villages and hamlets. Its people lived frugal lives scratching a lawless living by farming, fishing, digging for tin and stealing whatsoever they were unable to obtain by fair means. The arrival of Henry VII on the throne did not unite the kingdom. Social order was collapsing and plotting and intrigue were rife at court. Perkin Warbeck, who pretended to be one of the princes reputed to have been murdered in the Tower of London, claimed the throne. The Scots were a particular threat and supported the Pretender. When news reached London that King James IV of Scotland had crossed the border into northern England accompanied by Warbeck and an army Henry's government prepared for full-scale war.
