The Treaty of the More, concluded on…

The Treaty of the More, concluded on August 30, 1525, between Henry VIII of England and the interim French government of Louise of Savoy, is celebrated by Henry and the French ambassadors at The More, Hertfordshire, a castle owned by Cardinal Wolsey, Henry's chief minister.

England, with Wolsey negotiating, agrees to give up some territorial claims on France, receiving in return a pension from the French of twenty thousand pounds a year.

France settles what is owed to Henry VIII's sister, Mary, dowager queen of France.

England also agrees to work to secure the release of King Francis of France, currently held prisoner by Charles V, Holy Roman Emperor and King of Spain.

England has been troubled by the threat of a renewal of the "Auld Alliance" between France and Scotland, and France agrees to prevent the Scottish Duke of Albany from returning to Scotland.
