	The Duke of Northumberland's River
		The Duke of Northumberland's River is another artificial river and is a branch of the River Colne.
		But the Duke's River is much older than that having probably been constructed in the 15th or 16th centuries and was originally known as the Isleworth Mill Stream, or River, a name that indicated its purpose of providing power to the manorial water mill at Isleworth on the Thames.
		From this it appears that the Longford section of the Duke's River was constructed in the reign of Henry VIII.

	John, Duke of Northumberland
		His primary object was the subjugation of the King, whom he fascinated and impressed by his skill at games--he always, somehow, made time to shoot with Edward at the butts--by his fervent Protestantism and, most important of all, by his stressing of the royal prerogative.
		In Mary's case, there was good reason, for she and Northumberland were natural enemies; yet even when he stood at the head of the state (although he refused all official positions) as the "thunderbolt and terror of the Papists" and the King's right hand, Jane appears to have hated him.
		Northumberland's most fatal mistake was that he never considered the people and completely discounted the personality of Lady Jane.

	How far do you agree with the claim that the Duke of Northumberland’s unscrupulous conduct as a ruler was ...
		Northumberland would not have been able to rule effectively if he had been running a government that had no support from the people.
		From this viewpoint, it seems that Northumberland was entirely justified in taking these risks, as the potential gains far outweighed the disadvantages.
