Built as a showpiece for Tudor magnificence, the now-vanished Savoy was formerly one of the key sights of London. The original manuscript account, kept at Westminster Abbey, helps to recreate its previous glory. It is presented here in the first full transcription, and accompanied by an extensive introduction, notes and glossary. Charlotte A.
