A Tudor Martyr’s Final Stand

  • Summary

  • What would you do if your beliefs could cost you your life? On this day in 1556, Protestant lawyer Bartholomew Green faced that exact question—and paid the ultimate price.

    Burned at the stake at Smithfield alongside six others, Green’s story is one of unshakable faith, courage, and defiance in the face of Queen Mary I’s brutal crackdown on Protestantism.

    How did this Oxford-educated lawyer end up on the wrong side of Mary’s laws? What role did secret communions, controversial letters, and his rejection of Catholic doctrines play in his downfall?

    Join me as we uncover the gripping and tragic tale of Bartholomew Green—a story of conviction and sacrifice in one of the most turbulent periods of Tudor history.
