18 May 1635. Court at Greenwich. Order of the privy council [Cf PC 2/44, p. 572.]
Present: the king, archbishop of Canterbury, lord keeper, archbishop of York, lord privy seal, duke of Lennox, marquess [of] Hamilton, earl marshal, lord chamberlain, earls of Dorset, Bridgewater, Carlisle and Holland, lord Cottington, Mr treasurer, Mr secretary Coke, Mr secretary Windebancke.
Ships coming from sea are not to pass Gravesend with ordnance loaded with bullets. Those leaving the port of London are not to load ordnance until they reach Gravesend. When ships going to and from London fire their ordnance as they pass the king's court at Greenwich, the ordnance is to be aimed at the side of the river opposite to that on which the palace stands.
