It was at Pontefract Castle, later destroyed in the 17th century, that Francis Dereham, Catherine's former fiancé, approached queen for a position in her household. Presumably to secure his silence about their past, Catherine appointed Dereham her personal secretary.
3. Syon Park (former site of Syon Abbey)
