| Crossing the Tamar – 1497 Cornish uprising. |
 |
| Unrest grew first in the far West where Michael Joseph an Gof [The Smith] rallied support on the grounds of Cornwall’s inability to pay. At St Keverne he gathered a body of determined men and set out for Bodmin. On arrival, lawer Thomas Flamank explained the unlawful nature of the tax. No doubt, grounds for complaint would also have included the double Cornish tribute based on Cornish racial difference. With their cause made just, the lesser gentry [landowners with a common element of Cornishness] joined the protesters. |
