I don't know exactly when Guy Fawkes planned to destroy Parliament, but I do know it was during the "Stuart Era".
On November 5, 1605, 36 barrels of gunpowder were discovered under the Houses of Parliament. This plot, known as the Gunpowder Plot, was orchestrated by a group of conspirators, including Guy Fawkes, who aimed to blow up the Parliament and assassinate King James I. The discovery thwarted their plan, leading to Fawkes' capture and subsequent execution.
Guy Fawkes was part of a plot lead by Robert Catesby. The five main plotters first met at an inn called the "Duck and Drake" in London on the 20th May 1604
The Gunpowder Plot.
In the letter attributed to Guy Fawkes, he famously warned a fellow conspirator, Robert Catesby, to be cautious and to avoid any action that could compromise their plan to blow up the Houses of Parliament. The letter emphasized the urgency of their plot and the need for secrecy. However, the contents of the letter are often overshadowed by Fawkes' role in the Gunpowder Plot and his subsequent capture on November 5, 1605.
He was executed because he tried to blow up the parliament with a group. The plan involved blowing up the Houses of Parliament on 5th November. This date was chosen because the king was due to open Parliament on that day. At first the group tried to tunnel under Parliament but found out that they can rent a cellar under the houses of lords. But Guy Fawkes was caught when he was going to explode the gunpowder. Guy Fawkes was found guilty of treason and executed along with Thomas Wintour, on 31st January, 1606. The two men were both hanged, drawn and quartered
it was where a group of catholics (with guy Fawkes in it-but not led by gut Fawkes) attempted (and failed) to blow up the houses of parliament.
one of the people involved in the plot told the authorities of his plan, he was then caught under the houses of parliament placing barrels of gunpowder

You can book guided tours of the Houses of Parliament through the official UK Parliament website. These tours offer insight into the history and workings of the UK Parliament and must be booked in advance.
Guy Fawkes was very important in the gunpowder plot because he was the person who came up with the plan.
There was conflict between the catholics and the king.The Catholics wanted to blow up the Houses of Parliament while the King was there holding an important meeting. They hired Guy Fawkes! Unfortunately one of the MP's had been warned about the explosion and he alerted everyone. Guards were sent to look for the gun powder and they found Guy Fawkes with it!!! He was tortured horribly until he confessed. People wonder who it was sho told the MP the plan!! hope it helps...jessxxx
The Gunpowder Plot of 1605 as its known was the brainchild of Robert Catesby, Together with Guy Fawkes and other plotters, they formed a plan to strike at the opening of parliament on the day of 5 November. With the king (James1) dead, they could returnBritain to the Catholic faith. Fawkes posed as a servant called John Johnson, and began getting gunpowder. The plotters rented a cellar under the House of Lords and packed it with enough explosive to kill not only the present king but most of the powerful men in the land as they sat in the rooms above. As the plot neared its execution date of 5th November . Lord Monteagle, the brother-in-law of one of the plotters, received an anonymous letter which warned against attending Parliament for the opening. Monteagle passed the letter to Robert Cecil, who decided to wait before taking action. The plotters had no reason to believe their plan was in danger of discovery. On 4 November 1605, Cecil ordered a search of the whole of the Houses of Parliament, and Fawkes was found and arrested. The plan had been many weekins the the making with Catesby seeking out men who were Catholic sympathisers. The other ploters were; Robert and Thomas Wintour, Thomas Percy, Christopher and John Wright, Francis Tresham, Everard Digby, Ambrose Rookwood, Thomas Bates, Robert Keyes, Hugh Owen, John Grant .
Their original plan was to plant books in firefighters houses.
The Virginia Plan proposed that both houses of Congress would be based on population.
