About
With the Yorkist defeat at Wakefield, and the death of the heir to the throne, Richard Duke of York, at Sandal Castle, the House of Lancaster was now wholly in the ascendancy.
Learn about the key events in the three tumultuous months following Richard Duke of York’s death that would lead to the catastrophic Lancastrian defeats at Towton and the establishment of the Yorkist King Edward IV, in this talk from the Pontefract Castle volunteers.
