Helpers carry an oak coffin with the remains of King Richard III, the last of the Plantagenet dynasty, for a service held outside the University of Leicester in Leicester, Leicestershire, England on March 22, 2015, ahead of a reburial some 530 years on from his violent death in 1485 at the Battle of Bosworth. Richard, who ruled England from 1483 until his death in 1485, will be laid to rest on March 26, 2015 in Leicester Cathedral, across the street from where his remains were located in 2012.
