He had been Admiral of England since 1461 and he was now
appointed Constable. King Edward granted Richard many of
Warwick's forfeited estates and the following year the duke
married Warwick's younger daughter, Anne who was the widow of
Prince Edward who was killed at Tewkesbury. The couple took up
residence in the North of England, which King Edward effectively
entrusted to his brother, and Richard was created Warden of the
West Marches of Scotland. Richard took his duties seriously and
kept the north peaceful for the King. In 1476 Duchess Anne gave
birth to their only child, who became known as Edward of
Middleham.
During the remaining years of his brother's reign Richard of
Gloucester only occasionally left the North. Such occasions
included the invasion of France in 1475 and attending the
parliament of 1478 when their brother Clarence was attainted for
treason and privately executed. In the summer of 1482 Richard
invaded Scotland at King Edward's behest. He was accompanied by
the Scots King's brother, the duke of Albany. Richard and Albany
marched as far as Edinburgh before Richard strategically
withdrew over the border.
King Richard III was crowned, with his wife Anne, on 6 July at
Westminster Abbey. Shortly afterwards the couple began a
progress around the country which ended in York with the
investiture of their son Edward as Prince of Wales. In the
autumn of 1483, however, King Richard suffered a serious
set-back. His former supporter, the duke of Buckingham, became
involved in a rebellion, primarily based in the west country and
Kent. Although swiftly repressed, the effects were far reaching
and King Richard now began to rely more on his northern
supporters by placing them in the vacant offices left by the
rebels. The rebellion had been supported by a scion of the
house of Lancaster, the exiled Henry Tudor, a descendant of King
Edward III through his son John of Gaunt's legitimised Beaufort
family. Tudor had assumed the role of representative of the
Lancastrian line and focus for any disaffected English nobles
and gentry. On Christmas Day 1484 in Rennes Cathedral, Henry
Tudor declared his intention of marrying King Edward IV's eldest
daughter, the Lady Elizabeth, when he became King of England. He
then spent the next eighteen months planning his invasion.
King Richard meanwhile called his first, and only parliament, in
January 1484. The legislation covered three main areas, the
ratification of Richard as King, the passing of acts of
attainder against the October rebels and the passing of a number
of acts designed to reform part of the legal system.
King Richard's reign was overshadowed by the threat of Tudor's
invasion and by personal loss. Near the anniversary of the death
of his brother King Edward, Richard's son died and the King and
Queen shut themselves in their apartments at Nottingham Castle
to mourn their loss. Richard's Queen died less than a year later
on 16 March 1485.
The long awaited invasion came on the 7 August when Tudor landed
at Milford Haven in Wales. King Richard mobilised his forces and
on 22 August King and invader joined battle at Bosworth Field in
Leicestershire. Despite Richard's superior army the battle was
lost when the King was slain by the forces of Sir William
Stanley, who turned traitor in favour of his step-nephew, Henry
Tudor. Richard Plantagenet was the last king of England to die
on the battlefield.
http://www.r3.org/ American Branch of the Richard III Society.
This site is devoted to the study of King Richard III, last of
the medieval English kings the Wars of the Roses, a dynastic
struggle in the later middle ages that pitted Yorkist against
Lancastrian fifteenth-century England and its culture the
reputation of Richard III in history, literature, and drama,
especially Shakespeare.
http://www.richardiii.net/ Richard III Society Founded 1924 UK
Richard III was King of England from 1483 to 1485. Thanks mainly
to Shakespeare, he is known in the popular imagination as being
the archetypal wicked uncle who murdered his way to the throne.
In the belief that many of the features of the traditional
accounts are not supported by sufficient evidence, the purpose
of the Richard III Society is to promote research into his life
and times, and thereby secure a reassessment of his reputation
and of his place in history.
By the time the Elizabethan playwright William Shakespeare
penned, what was to become one of his most popular and often
performed plays, The Tragedy of King Richard III, the works of
the anonymous Croyland Chronicler, John Rous, Bernard Andre,
Polydore Virgil, Sir Thomas More, Edward Hall, Richard Grafton
and Raphael Holinshed had been written. Shakespeare followed
their tradition and presented his anti-hero as the murderous,
deformed tyrant so well known to theatre, television and cinema
audiences.
