Richard's staying at the Great Wardrobe

I ran across two instances in *The Coronation of Richard III* (page 68
text and footnote) where Richard stayed at the royal apartments in the
Great Wardrobe. (The following isn't absolutely verbatim; I read it as
notes into my cell phone)

"When a visit from the king or other notables was imminent extra
repairs might be hurried through. But the visit of Richard III on 25
November 1483 after Buckingham's rebellion passed almost unnoticed in
the keeper's account unless it is reflected in the provision of a
great lock for the entry of the King's Chamber."

[from footnote] "Richard was received into London on St. Katherine's
day. Ref: the Drapers Company warden's accounts 1475 to 1509, folio
30. He also stayed in the great wardrobe on 22nd January 1485. Ref:
Har. MSS 433, volume 2, p.201."

My question is...why would he have been staying there on those dates?
And who would he have had with him?

Also...The Coronation also mentions that Edward IV's daughter,
Bridget, was laying sick at the Wardrobe in 1483. Was this when
Richard was in London? Is there any other information on her illness
or if she joined her mother/family eventually in sanctuary, or where
she ultimately ended up staying?

I wants me a TARDIS so badly.

Weds, I can't help you with the 22nd January 1485 one, but Richard arrived in London on 25 November 1483 and delivered the Great Seal back to John Russell on the 26th, so perhaps the Great Wardrobe was simply a convenient place to stay in the City? They were regular royal apartments, after all; the Great Wardrobe was a mere stone's throw away from the Old Temple, Russell's place; and if I'm correct, Russell was sick at the time so probably not able to move around much.

Hmm.. your theory fits for his staying there in November 1483. I was also thinking no one knew when he'd return to London (or if) after Buckingham's rebellion, so likely Westminster or Greenwich was being prepared for him as well?
