Springtime at Hampton Court Palace-Near Elder Parker's First Area as a Young Missionary


Hampton Court Palace


Hampton Court Palace is a royal palace in the borough of Richmond upon Thames, London, England, 11.7 miles (18.8 kilometres) south west and upstream of central London on the River Thames. Building of the palace began in 1515 for Cardinal Thomas Wolsey, a favourite of King Henry VIII. In 1529, as Wolsey fell from favour, the King seized the palace for himself and later enlarged it. Along with St James's Palace, it is one of only two surviving palaces out of the many owned by King Henry VIII.

This is in Tolworth which is a short distance from Hampton Court Palace.  This was Elder Parker's first missionary area in England in 1969.  This door at 17 Bidmead Court was the home of Elder Parker's very first convert to the church.  Her name was Sister Hocker.
