The York Princes vs The Barley Husk

  • Summary

  • In 1483, beneath the cold stones of the Tower of London, two young brothers—Edward V and Richard of York—vanished into the shadows of history. Was it a knight’s trembling hand guided by loyalty or the dark whispers of a ruthless king that sealed their fate? And what role could a humble barley-stuffed pillow play in one of England’s most infamous mysteries?

    Join us for this episode of Plantagenet Murder as we unravel the secrets of betrayal, power, and the deadly intersection of history and agriculture. From the blood-soaked fields of Towton to the shadowed corridors of the Tower, we’ll explore the twists and turns of a murder that reshaped the course of a nation—and ask the question that still echoes centuries later: who killed the Princes in the Tower?
