The Wizard Earl, the start of astronomy with a telescope, Sir Walter Raleigh, Virginia, the Gunpowder Plot, and the Smithsonian. What does all of this history have in common? Syon Park, a stately home on the River Thames.
I've put a few pictures related to this article on the Pinterest board Astronomy Places
One of the pins on the board is a map that includes both Syon Park and Kew Observatory. Both places once contained 15th century monasteries founded by Henry V.
