Richard 111
I don't play golf anymore but I was a member of Maxstoke Park Golf Club
for about 15 years or so.
The back drop to the 17th green is Maxstoke castle and, so the story goes, it was here that Richard
ate his last civilised meal before the battle of Bosworth field. Once I had heard this story I wanted
to know more than just the Tudor propaganda and Will shakeys version of Richard, and the awful
story of the princes in the tower.
Just the account of how he died at Bosworth left me in awe of the man, but his whole life
story (short though it was) is almost unbelievable .The picture above and not the image W.S
paints, is how I think of Richard 111.
Film on channel 4 last night on how the remains of Richard have been found ( a fantastic
story in itself) and how some 500 years or so after his death he will be given a 'proper' burial.
Foot note ... Richard was the last English king to die in battle, royalty should have died with him...
