How York is treated now depends on…

July 1457 CE

How York is treated now depends on how powerful the Queen's views are.

York is regarded with suspicion on three fronts: he threatens the succession of the young Prince of Wales; he is apparently negotiating for the marriage of his son Edward into the Burgundian ruling Family; and as a supporter of the Nevilles, he is contributing to the Percy/Neville feud, the major cause of disturbance in the kingdom.

Here, the Nevilles lose ground; Salisbury gradually ceases to attend meetings of the council.

When his brother Robert Neville, Bishop of Durham, dies in 1457, the new appointment is Laurence Booth, a member of the Queen's inner circle.

The Percys are shown greater favor both at court and in the struggle for power on the Scottish Border.
