Anne Boleyn. Her Life as told by Lancelot de Carle's 1536 Letter.
In 1536, two weeks after the execution of Anne Boleyn, her brother George and four others, Lancelot du Carle, wrote an extraordinary letter that described Anne's life, and her trial and execution, to which he was a witness. This book presents a new translation of that letter, with additional material from other contemporary sources such as Letters, Hall's and Wriothesley's Chronicles, the pamphlets of Wynkyn the Worde, the Memorial of George Constantyne, the Portuguese Letter and the Baga de Secrets, all of which are provided in Appendices.

Trearddur aka Coetan Arthur Burial Chamber is in Holyhead, Anglesey, Prehistoric Anglesey Burial Chambers.
Archaeologia Cambrensis 1867. About a quarter of a mile further on, near Trearddur farm, close to the road on the right, there are the traces of a similar cromlech [Trearddur aka Coetan Arthur Burial Chamber [Map]] (now nearly obliterated), called Coetan Arthur. Near this spot, in 1837, a vessel containing a great many Roman copper coins was found, of the later emperors. I took them to the British Museum, but there was none peculiar; and I regret that they were purloined in transmission by post to the owner. Nearer Holyhead, on the same road, there is a fine maenhir on the right, in a field near Ty Mawr farm. W. O. Stanley. Penrhos. March 23, 1867.
