Thomas Cromwell Helped Henry VIII To Close The Monasteries :-)
Anglican Catholic Answers!
Thomas was the Vice Regent of England, he was dealing with the Kings business and in a practical way was I suppose the managing director, of Tudor Eng, U.K.
Thomas masterminded the whole business and pulled all the strings being responsible for all those good Catholic Men, who moved about England firstly taking stock and assessing what was on offer from the Monasteries and various buildings then giving orders. It was in the main the King who disposed of the wealth and again the people who benefited from the whole mess were catholics!

How did Henry VIII take over the Monasteries?
Primarily Henry got rid of the monasteries because they were Catholic and the Catholics disapproved of his divorce from Catharine of Aragon. Henry was fed up with the Catholics because they listand to the Pope for authority, instead of him. He also wanted money. The only way Henry was able to divorce his wife, was if he changed the religion of the country. He called his new Church the Church of England, and appointed Thomas Cranmer as the first Archbishop of Canterbury in the Church of England. He started with the smaller Catholic estates, and graduated to the monasteries He did wantonly destroy the monasteries. Worst off were the poor since they had no one to look after them or treat them when they were ill. Also, priceless art treasures were lost. His nobleman did not object to what he was doing, since they were given property and land for co-operating with the King. However, it is said that Henry gained so much wealth from this, that he was able to build a Navy with the spoils from the Dissolution of the Monasteries Hope this helps. Best wishes Kate

Who were the important people involed in the dissolution of the monasteries?
The monasteries were dissolved for a number of reasons: * Henry VIII was basically bankrupt following wars with France and needed to raise capital. Dissolution of the monasteries, seizure of their land would bring in capital. * Smaller (less profitable) monasteries were dissolved first. The process masqueraded as a purifying mission to rid the new Anglican church of the sorts of excesses which had been recently criticised by Luther Et Al throughout Europe. * Following the break with Rome, all of this was a lot easier as Henry did not have anyone to answer to regarding clerical issues. (It should be noted that dissolution of monasteries was not necessarily religiously motivated) * Monasteries were a central part of the local communities. By eradicating these, Henry was essentially centralizing English society; a form of capitalism often debated as 'Absolute' rule. (i.e. dictatorship)
