Head to @ManCathedral tomorrow (31 July, 14.30–) for my free public lecture exploring #Tudor #forgeries by #Victorian Uppermill architect & antiquary George Shaw. We'll examine his fake #HericusVIIRex bed copied from the 1485 #Royal original, & other work, inc. the lectern.

One of #GeorgeShaw's most impressive pieces of #architecture. Not only designing and building this #GothicRevival pile in 1861, he also furnished its interior, including with suitable #Royal #heraldry—mantled hourglass #escutcheon making it #Tudor—#HyVII.

Want to learn more about George Shaw’s remarkable 1840s fake Tudor furniture, then head to #ManchesterCathedral to see the exhibition #aroyaltudorbedandanorthernrogue now to see more!

[Peter N Lindfield @PeterNLindfield]

📷@hevercastle’s #BoleynRoom opens today & one of #GeorgeShaw’s pieces of #fake #Tudor #furniture (hall cupboard made for the Derby family of Knowsley) is featured. What would this Northern Rogue architect-antiquary think of his 1849 fake infiltrating this historical experience?

[Aseem Inam @TRU_Lab]

One of the central characters in the #Tudor bed's #Victorian history is #GeorgeShaw of #Uppermill; an architect, antiquary, and collector of carved oak. Parts detached from the bed remain at his house, today @OldhamCouncil's Saddleworth Library, and also @chethamslibrary.
