Britain's oldest wedding bed, dating from the 1570s, was rediscovered at a Bonhams auction in London in 2014 after disappearing for centuries. Originally owned by the Radclyffe family of Salford and located in Ordsall Hall, the bed was an elaborate piece of furniture, made for Sir John Radclyffe and Lady Anne Asshawe. John, born in 1536, was a Knight of the Shire known for his Catholic faith, while Anne, born in 1548, was a wealthy heiress and Lady of the Court of Elizabeth I.
