The King is Dead, Long Live the King Mystery Cache

This is the last cache in honour of the much maligned King Richard the Third.

A small cache with no room for anything else. Please take a pen and a pair of tweezers would be useful. Unfortunately the final cache is not suitable for wheelchair users.

Please replace carefully exactly in the place it was found.

The cache is not at the listed coordinates.

Richard the Third, the Last of the Plantagenets, was at killed Bosworth Field on 22nd August 1485. His body was taken to Leicester where he was buried, without a coffin in the Friary of the Grey Friars, remaining there until 2012 when University of Leicester archaeologists, together with members of the Richard III Society uncovered him in what is now a Council office car park.

He was finally given a proper and fitting burial in Leicester Cathedral on 26th March 2015 almost 530 years after his death.
