20 Its name appears thus in a plan of the Tower drawn in ca. 1597, which is only known from an engraving of the lost original done in 1742, which is now in the possession of the Society of Antiquaries of London.
21 Wriothesley
22 Warnicke asserts that Aless heard the cannonfire on April 30, but no one was committed to the Tower on that day—none of the accused were sent there until May 2. She bases her assertion on Aless’s statement, in his previous paragraph, that he was at Greenwich late at night on April 30. However, he does not state when he returned to London. In the paragraph following the one in which he mentions hearing the cannon, he refers to news of the Queen’s arrest spreading “in the morning,” i.e., the morning of May 3. As she was imprisoned on the afternoon of May 2, he must have returned to Greenwich on that day. It is highly unlikely that the cannon was fired to mark the lowly Smeaton’s committal to the Tower, as Warnicke suggests.

28 Warnicke is mistaken in suggesting that Anne was imprisoned in the Beauchamp Tower, also known as the Cobham Tower, which is some distance from the palace; that old tradition was disputed by Elizabeth Benger as far back as 1821.

35 Histoire de la Royne Anne de Boullant. Anthony Anthony says that Wyatt was taken to the Tower at 9:00 A.M. on May 8, but he is not perhaps the most reliable observer, having almost certainly got the time of Smeaton’s arrival there wrong. The Lisle Letters refer to Page being in the Tower on May 8, not that he was taken there that day. Kingston’s second report to Cromwell, probably written on the evening of May 5, refers to the arrests of Wyatt and Page.
