Lambert Simnel was defeated at the Battle of Stoke in 1487, however Henry VII showed mercy towards him and instead of executing him, made him a royal servant, working as spit-turner in the royal kitchens. He eventually became the King's falconer.
Perking Warbeck was defeated after the second Cornish rebellion in 1497. He was placed under house arrest for a time at Taunton and was then sent to the Tower of London after attempting to escape. In 1499, he was accused of plotting treason with the Earl of Warwick who was also in the Tower and was executed.

He was never as successful in his rebellion as Simnel was as by the time he stood against the Crown in 1491, Henry VII's foreign policy had improved somewhat and Warbeck was denied sanctuary in many countries such as Scotland, France and Spain.
