feet high. The length of the hall Is
290 feet. Its breadth slxty-elght feet.
It was large enough for mounted men
to enter in order to challenge any who
would dispute the rights of the king,
a ceremony that Is quaintly described
as follows on the occasion of the coro­
nation of Richard III. and Queen Anne
In 1483:
