Hidden Histories: The Final Journeys Of Richard Iii

With tour guide Jim Butler

To mark the anniversary of the historic Battle of Bosworth, discover not only the routes of Richard III's fateful last journeys in and out of Leicester city centre in 1485 but also the odyssey undertaken by those charged with reburying the last Plantagenet in 2015.

Jim Butler, who was also part of the team charged with reburying the King, explores some of the places around Leicester that Richard would have known in life as well as some of the behind-the-scenes work undertaken to honour the king in death.
