GUY FAWKES - GUNPOWDER PLOT - 5TH NOVEMBER



   Guy Fawkes (1570 to 1606), also known as Guido Fawkes, was one of a group of Catholic plotters who planned, but failed, to blow up Parliament - now known as the Gunpowder Plot of 1605.

   On 5th November 1605 Londoners were encouraged to celebrate the King's escape from assassination by lighting bonfires.
