Different historians disagree as the exact date to the end of the Wars of the Roses. The common view among most is that, it ended with the battle of Bosworth Field on 22nd August 1485 when Henry Tudor (King Henry VII) defeated King Richard III who died in the battle. However, the Battle of Stoke (1487) can be argued to be a continuation of the wars of the roses due to the fact that it was organised by the Earl of Lincoln, John de la Pole, a Yorkist claiment to the English throne. Further problems also arrive because of Perkin Warbeck (a pretender to the English Throne c. 1490-99) and the remaining de la Pole lineage. Therefore some have argued that it was not 1485 that the Wars of the Roses finished, but possibly as late as 1525 with the death of Richard de la Pole.
