in 1487, a ten-year-old boy named Lambert Simnel was crowned ‘King Edward VI’ in Christ Church Cathedral, Dublin.

Backed by Yorkist supporters, Simnel was passed off as Edward, Earl of Warwick... despite the real Warwick being locked up in the Tower by Henry VII. The coronation was a bold move to challenge the new Tudor king’s shaky hold on the throne.
