The ruins of 12th Century Leicester Abbey where Cardinal Wolsey died on 29 November 1530. In spite of having many enemies, Cardinal Wolsey retained Henry VIII's confidence until Henry decided to seek an annulment of his marriage to Catherine of Aragon, so that he could marry Anne Boleyn. Wolsey's failure to secure the annulment directly caused his downfall and arrest. In 1529 he was accused of treason and ordered to London but fell ill on the journey, and died at Leicester.
