Walsingham, Sir Francis (1532-1590)

About Walsingham, Sir Francis (1532-1590) - Spys

Died here. He was Elizabeths 1 Secretary of State in succession to Cecil, but is more infamous as the founder of the Ehglish Secret Service. It is no exaggeration to say that, on his skill in unravelling plots, the life of the Queen, and with that life the future of an independent Protestant England, really depended. In particular, it was his skill in tracking out the Babington Conspiracy of 1585 that brought Mary, Queen of Scots, to the block.
