The Furnival palace is a large house in the town square where the Furnival family live. This is their main home, though they do own other houses such as the manor house in Stromford. Bear is taken to the Furnival palace when he is captured by John Aycliffe. When Crispin decides to rescue Bear, Crispin slips into the gap between the palace and another building and climbs the wall. He swings onto the balcony and slips inside. The Furnival palace is richly decorated inside. Crispin sees an armory, a huge dining hall, and a chapel with an image of his father. In the basement of the palace there are dungeons where prisoners like Bear are held and tortured.
