How long did Richard I spend in England during his reign?

Richard I, also known as Richard the Lionheart, spent very little time in England during his 10-year reign (1189–1199). It is estimated that he spent only about six months of his entire reign within the country.12

Rather than focusing on the administration of the English monarchy, Richard was primarily preoccupied with the Third Crusade and defending his Angevin empire holdings in France against Philip II. During his frequent and prolonged absences, he left the governance of England to capable ministers, most notably Hubert Walter, who served as justiciar and archbishop of Canterbury.12
