Rooms from Henry VIII's Greenwich Palace Discovered
 

Underground rooms from Greenwich Palace, King Henry VIII's birthplace and a center of courtly life, were discovered earlier this year by a team working on a conservation project at the Old Royal Naval College in Greenwich, England.

In Greenwich Palace, Henry VIII's entourage experienced raucous good times. There was a banquet hall for extravagant feasts, stables for the king's many horses, kennels for the dogs, tennis courts and even places for cockfighting, a bloody sport particularly beloved by Henry VIII's daughter Elizabeth I.
