A bundle of old documents bought at a country sale have been identified as the financial accounts - of King Richard III. <br /><br />The papers show money the Shakespearean king made in one year from the Duchy estate in Devon and Cornwall - and particularly from 'Poldark' tin mines. <br /><br />The faded pages of parchment covering one of the most turbulent years in English history show his incomes in the year he came to the throne in 1483.
