Imprisoned by Elizabeth I for plotting to take Mary Queen of Scots as his fourth wife. His pro-Catholic activities led to his beheading on Tower Hill, just like his Dad, Henry Howard. Father of Admiral Thomas Howard.
Howard bought the house at Charterhouse in 1564 and lavishly extended it to become Howard House, a ducal mansion. His prison-time for the crime of plotting to marry Mary was partly spent at the Tower and partly at that house.
