Ricardian Sites Introduction Ricardian Britain: Sites associated with Richard III and events during his lifetime Many years ago, the Society brought out a booklet, ‘Ricardian Britain’, which listed nearly 90 sites throughout England and Wales which were associated with Richard III and his family and with the events of the Wars of the Roses. The booklet went through several editions and reprints, but unfortunately it has long been out of print. However, as part of this web site, we will gradually build up a listing of a number of the principal Ricardian sites, beginning with the following: Fotheringhay – the village of Richard III’s birth Middleham – Richard III’s principal residence in the north Sheriff Hutton – where Richard III’s son is remembered Bosworth – the site of Richard III’s final and fatal battle Crosby Hall – Richard’s London residence as Duke of Gloucester |
