Fulke Greville, Treasurer of the Navy
Warwickshire is not noted for its Naval history but the Warwick Castle archive contains a splendid series of account books.
These books are related to the upkeep of the Naval Fleet when the threat of another Spanish Armada remained real. Rob Eyre, Senior Archivist, provides an opportunity to examine these fascinating documents more closely.
