REGARDING RICHARD III

The Battle of Bosworth was fought on 22^nd August  1485 and the Wars of the Roses came to an end. Henry Tudor had marched with his army from Milford Haven in Wales where he had landed with about 2000 men. The Battle of Bosworth is one of England’s most significant battles as it ended the reign of Richard III and led to Henry Tudor becoming Henry VII, the first of the Tudor monarchs, a dynasty that lasted to 1603 and included the reign of two of England’s most celebrated sovereigns – Henry VIII and his daughter Elizabeth I.
