Bonfire Night
Gunpowder Plot
The Tower of London played a large part in the Gunpowder Plot. Guy Fawkes was brought to the Tower to be interrogated and tortured by a council of the King's Ministers, and the gunpowder explosives planted under the House of Lords were sent to the Tower after the discovery. Fawkes' co-conspirator, Ambrose Rochewood, has left his inscription on the walls of the Martin Tower at the site.
