Summary: On this day in Tudor history, 16th August 1513, the Battle of Spurs took place at Guinegate, or Enguinegatte, in France. It actually wasn't a pitched battle at all, as the French knights fled the scene, but that didn't stop Henry VIII claiming victory and doing a bit of exaggerating. Claire Ridgway, founder of the Tudor Society, explains what exactly happened on this day in 1513 in today's talk.
