He quickly marched to London with his friend Warwick.
The Duke of York’s young son, Edward was now the Duke. Her army killed the Duke of York in battle and they freed the King. The Duke claimed the throne of England for himself.
He had a strong wife called Marguerite and she would have been a much better ruler than him.Įventually the Duke of York got fed up with how useless Henry was being.
By this time the Lancastrian King was called Henry VI. Then Joan of Arc came and helped to reconquer France. One king won a great victory at the Battle of Agincourt. He and his son were at first very successful Kings. So their Duke became the King of England. At first the Lancastrians were more powerful. The Lancastrians had a red rose the Yorkists had a white rose. They each had a banner with a Rose on it. This was the civil war between the House of York and the House of Lancaster that was fought in the time of knights and castles to see who would rule England.Ħ00 years ago two families had a claim to the throne of England: the Lancastrians and the Yorkists. You won't leave disappointed.Sophie (age 8) and Ellie (age 6) tell the story of the Wars of the Roses. The cost of the entry ticket to the whole attraction is more than reasonable, but I would willingly pay the full cost for the Falconers Quest alone.Īnyone looking for an exceptional day out that offers more than value for money visit The finale was absolutely incredible and quite emotional. The Falconers were exceptional and the birds were magnificent, the story was amazing with faultless narration. My wife and I are avid Birds of Prey watchers, we have seen displays from Kent to Yorks but nothing comes near to this display. It would have been helpful if it was made clear on prebooking our tickets that it was a very lo way from car park to castle, even better offered reserved parking, even at a cost, for customers with issues that are physically affecting but not bad enough to warrant a disabled parking.Įnough of the groans, an otherwise fantastic experience with loads to do and see.but nothing was to better The Falconers Quest. On arriving we were directed to a field where we were to park the car this field was an incredible distance from the castle entrance which for two older people ( i am 70 years old with mobility issues) this was quite challenging. I hadn't been to Warwick Castle for over 40 yrs.
