Orange

Yesterday (Tuesday) we took a ride out to Richmond Upon Thames to visit Hampton Court Palace, most commonly associated with Henry VIII  and his six wives but it was also home to King William III of Orange and his wife Queen Mary II. In addition Oliver and Elizabeth Cromwell, took up residence there after the revolution, during the period when England was not subject to rule by a monarch.

Here's a selection of images from the day:
