In early November 1536, #Hull is de facto capital of Yorkshire. Leader of the Pilgrimage of Grace, Robert Aske, is here, and Sir Robert Constable is Governor of Hull under him. They start shaking down local merchants to fund the rebellion. @hull_libraries @Hull_Museums

The Pilgrimage of Grace still rumbled on 490 years ago. Robert Aske, leader of the rebels (pic - their banner) and by now effectively governor of Yorkshire came to #Hull #OTD 1536 to coordinate its defence and raise money for the rebellion. @Hull_Museums @hull_libraries

#OTD 490 years ago 1536 at Doncaster the northern rebels of the Pilgrimage of Grace negotiated a truce with Henry VIII's much smaller forces: they would present their grievances to the King and disperse. Our man John Hallam was among the rebels. @hull_libraries @Hull_Museums
