In the year 1575, Scrooby Manor House in Nottinghamshire became the home of a young man by the name of William Brewster, when it served as the ‘tied-cottage’ in connection with his father’s work as a steward or manager on the Scrooby estate. Ironically, in the light of events – for God has a sense of humour (Ps. 2:4) – the Manor House had been lived in by Cardinal Wolsey, seventy years before. Indeed, it was from that very house that he had written to his king, Henry VIII, advising him to ‘depress this new pernicious sect called Lutherans’. But it was not the Reformed faith which was to be ‘depressed’; Wolsey himself was to be broken. He had risen to the supreme position in effect in both State and Church when he was made papal legate in 1518, but in the aftermath of Henry’s break with Rome, Wolsey was ruined. Only his premature death in 1530 saved him from execution
