You could own a part of British history, as the bible that belonged to the priest who smuggled King Charles II out of England during the Civil War is heading to auction, and it could fetch thousands.
A bible which belonged to the priest who smuggled King Charles II out of England during the Civil War is expected to fetch thousands at auction.
Father Huddleston arranged for King Charles II to seek safety in France during the English Civil War, and attended the monarch’s death bed to convert him to the Catholic faith in 1685. ‘The signature alone is probably worth £600 to £800 but the lift in the value would be the fact that it’s his personal bible,’ he went on.
