Tudor Court, TW13

Place Name

Along with Elizabeth Way, Castle Way, Moat Side, Queens Way, Queens Avenue, Seymour Gardens, Shakespeare Way and Raleigh Way, this is one of a number of nearby streets commemorating Hanworth Castle, a royal Tudor hunting lodge where Elizabeth I spent part of her childhood and sometimes stayed during her reign. Seymour Gardens is at the centre of the original fortification. It burnt down and was rebuilt on its present day site, the now derelict Hanworth Park House, in 1797.
