A HISTORIAN is set to reveal new evidence relating to the 540-year-old mystery of the Princes in the Tower.

On Thursday, June 26, Philippa Langley will be giving a talk at The Forum, Malvern Theatres at 7.30pm.

Langley, who played a key role in the discovery and reburial of Richard III in 2012, will present findings from the Missing Princes Project, which has conducted a 10-year forensic investigation into the fate of the two princes.

The project claims to have discovered "overwhelming evidence" that the princes survived and later challenged Henry VII for the throne.

Langley is also known for her co-authorship of the bestselling The Lost King and Finding Richard III, the official account of her Looking For Richard Project.

Tickets for the talk are priced at £19.60 and £15.12, including a booking fee, and are available from the Malvern Theatres Box Office at malvern-theatres.co.uk.
