Clarence's
Bones
The following images were sent to us by Karen Ladniuk of Brazil, who describes her 1996 trip to England: In February 96 I traveled to England following many places related to Richard's history like: Fotheringay, Middleham, Ludlow, Wakefield, York, Pontefract, Gloucester and Tewkesbury. Unfortunately I could not go to Bosworth and Barnet by that time, but I am planning to do that soon, as I go to England almost once a year. In Tewkesbury I did managed to take pictures of Clarence's (and his wife Isabel) remains by simply entering into the crypt which is not inside the small chapel, as I thought at first, but in the floor. After a long "negotiation" (begging, imploring, etc...) with someone who is sort of "sub-vicar" he agreed in showing me the very inside of the grave. By the pictures I am sending to you, you can verify the open grate, the former coffins and the glass box where the remains are now. I hope you enjoy that as much as I did.
