Council Of The North

Following the suppression of the Pilgrimage Of Grace , Henry VIII reorganised the council. He placed it under Henry Fitzroy, 1st Duke Of Richmond And Somerset with its seat at York . It met the lodgings of St. Mary's Abbey in the centre of that city; after the dissolution of the abbey the building was retained by the king who formally allocated it to the Council. The building is nowadays called King's Manor.

It was abolished by the Long Parliament in 1641 , because it was the chief support for Catholic Recusants and Anglicans. After the English Restoration , the Secretary Of State For The Northern Department was formed and influenced Industry .
