• The most direct male representative of the family was Richard III’s 10 year-old nephew, [blank_start]Edward[blank_end] (the Earl of [blank_start]Warwick[blank_end]). Henry removed this threat by sending him to the Tower of London. He lived there in relative comfort but without the freedom to come and go as he pleased.
• Richard III had named his heir as another nephew – [blank_start]John de la Pole[blank_end]. He was the Earl of [blank_start]Lincoln[blank_end] (the son of Richard’s sister Elizabeth).

It was collected as a [blank_start]type of income tax[blank_end] and the King only received [blank_start]£27,000[blank_end] of it.

- Athe Earl of Warwick
- BRichard of York
- CEdward of York
37Symonds took Simnel to [blank_start]Ireland[blank_end] as this had been a centre of Yorkist support. The current Lord Lieutenant was Lord Kildare and, he along with other leading Irish nobles, proclaimed Simnel as [blank_start]Edward VI[blank_end]. He was also supported by [blank_start]Margaret of Burgundy.[blank_end] She sent money and 2000 soldiers to Ireland to support Simnel. These troops were led by Martin Schwartz. This support led to Simnel being crowned as Edward VI in Dublin in [blank_start]May 1487.[blank_end]

39The situation was made worse when the [blank_start]Earl of Lincoln[blank_end] fled to join [blank_start]Lovel[blank_end] at the court of Margaret in Flanders. [blank_start]Lincoln and Lovel[blank_end] then accompanied Schwartz when he went to [blank_start]Ireland[blank_end] in May 1487. Henry was concerned at these events and did not know how many Yorkists would join with Simnel. This is shown by him granting a pardon to Thomas Broughton, who had been among [blank_start]Richard III’s[blank_end] most loyal supporters in the north-west.

46In the autumn of [blank_start]1491[blank_end] Perkin Warbeck (a 17 year-old from Tournai in France) arrived in [blank_start]Cork, Ireland[blank_end]. He claimed to be [blank_start]Richard, Duke of York[blank_end] – the younger brother who was supposedly murdered in the Tower. While the men behind the plot seem to be of humble origins, there is much suggestion that [blank_start]Charles VIII of France[blank_end] & Margaret of Burgundy were also involved in the plot. At this time, [blank_start]Charles[blank_end] was trying to force [blank_start]Brittany[blank_end] to become part of his kingdom and saw Warbeck as a useful pawn to put pressure on Henry.

59In July 1495 Warbeck attempted an invasion of England when he sailed from [blank_start]the Netherlands[blank_end] and attempted to land in Kent. His small force was easily dealt with by Henry’s forces because they knew beforehand that he would invade. Sir Robert Clifford was a royal agent among Warbeck’s supporters and also implicated [blank_start]Sir William Stanley[blank_end] in the plot. This was the man that had changed the course of the Battle of Bosworth and was one of Henry’s most trusted officials. His execution showed that Henry would spare no traitor, no matter how eminent.

He first went to Ireland.
Then he went to [blank_start]France.[blank_end]
Then he fled to [blank_start]Burgundy.[blank_end]
Then he was backed by the [blank_start]Holy Roman Empire.[blank_end]

74In the aftermath of Warbeck's plot, the main Yorkist claimant was [blank_start]Edmund[blank_end] de la Pole.
- AEdmund
75Edmund de la Pole was the Earl of Suffolk. While on the surface Suffolk appeared to be loyal to the King, it was clear that there was underlying tension between the two men.
In July [blank_start]1499[blank_end], Suffolk took flight to Guisnes, near Calais in France. Henry feared that this would lead to another foreign-backed invasion and persuaded Suffolk to return. He remained in amicable terms with Henry until [blank_start]1501[blank_end] when he once again fled – this time to the court of [blank_start]Maximilian.[blank_end]
Henry was in a vulnerable position as Yorkist support once again gathered. He only had one male heir, Prince [blank_start]Henry[blank_end] who was only 10 and was not considered to be physically strong at this stage.
Any of Suffolk’s relations who remained in England were imprisoned. When parliament met in January 1504 51 men, many of whom were connected to Suffolk were attained.
Henry gained the upper hand in this struggle in 1506 when [blank_start]Philip of Burgundy[blank_end] was forced by a storm to take refuge in England. Henry persuaded [blank_start]Philip[blank_end] to hand Suffolk over to him as he had seized him from Maximilian. Philip did this on the assurance that Suffolk would not be executed, a promise Henry kept.- A1499

79The Church was important as a great landowner as well as a religious institution.
- AVerdadero
- BFalso
80Henry only appointed men to clerical positions who had an aristocratic background.

- Bdevout spirituality,
- Ccompetent administrator
- Dstaunch Catholic
82The Black Death had led to a dramatic fall in the population and had reduced the demand for land – the resulting drop in the price of land had enabled the emergence of the group sometimes described as the ‘peasant aristocracy’
- AVerdadero
- BFalso
83The most powerful nobles in the country were known as [blank_start]magnates[blank_end].
(Hint: it begins with an M.)- Amagnates

- AVerdadero
- BFalso
85Which of the following are true about Henry's relations with the nobility?
- AHe created many new peers in order to stabilise his position - these men were guaranteed to give loyal service.
- BHenry deliberately refrained from creating new Lords.
- CHenry used patronage to guarantee the loyalty of the nobility.
- DIf Henry created a large number of peers, his income would drop considerably, as they would receive lands from crown lands. This is why he did not create many.
- EThe King controlled the marriages of his nobles to ensure that leading magnates did not link themselves to great heiresses to create dangerous power blocks.
- FPowerful families were kept under close surveillance.
- GHenry trusted the small number of powerful families and did not feel the need to monitor them.
- HHenry did not try to buy the loyalty of the nobility through the use of patronage.
- ILoyalty and ability were Henry’s sole requirements for receiving patronage.
86Acts of [blank_start]Attainder[blank_end] were a method of punishing the nobility. It involved the loss of rights when a man was convicted by parliament of treason or any other serious crime. It was applied to a man’s heirs too and meant the loss of the family estate.
