Catherine’s meet and greet was so successful, the mayor presented her with a gift of 400 guineas for her graciousness.

On Michaelmas day the royal couple dined at Blickling Hall, the home of Sir John Hobart and there Charles knighted his thirteen-year-old son, Henry. They then moved on to the home of the Pastons at Oxnead which was commemorated in a poem.

Paston and Hobart did bring up the meat,

Who, the next day, at their own houses treat,

Paston to Oxnead did his sovereign bring,

And, like Arannah, offered as a king.

Blickling two monarchs and two queens has seen;

One king fetched thence — another brought a queen.

Great Townsend, of the treats brought up the rear,

And doubly was my lord-lieutenant there.11
