IN YOUR editorial of February 5 regarding where King Richard III should be buried, you have stated that Richard was Duke of York.
This is incorrect; he was Duke of Gloucester. It was his father Richard who was Duke of York.
He was, as stated, the last king of England to die in battle.
As a York-based society, we also agree that Richard III should rest here in York Minster, in a city he loved and who loved him.
