'A new garden has been created at Hampton Court Palace to commemorate the 500th anniversary of King Henry VIII’s accession to the throne in 1509. The Tudor Garden has been designed by landscape architect Todd Longstaffe-Gowan and now fills the hitherto empty Chapel Court.
Planted with flowers and herbs that were available in sixteenth century England it also includes the heraldic beasts that were used by the King to represent his lineage and reinforce his claim to the throne.'
