IN reply to the article about Prince Arthur, son of Henry VIII, and his suspicious death.
It would not surprise me that Henry Tudor implemented this act.
After his "Victory" at Bosworth Field, thanks to the turncoat Lord Stanley, his propaganda campaign against Richard III was beyond belief in all our English history.
He did not even give Richard a Christian burial, but displayed his butchered remains on display at the Greyfriars Monastery.
At the battle of Bosworth he deployed six decoys, Shakespeare says "I think there be six Richmond's in the Field" (Henry was Earl of Richmond).
Richard fought and died bravely at Bosworth while Henry remained at the rear of the field taking no physical part.
It is good to read that the fathers of Worcester are beginning to realise Worcester's rich medieval history, and equate this with our over-realised Civic War.
