#OnThisDay in #history - in 1461 and in 1838 two English monarchs were crowned.
In 1461, after defeating Margaret of Anjou's forces in the Wars of the Roses, Edward, earl of March, took to London for his coronation to become Edward IV.
In 1838, a young woman who inherited the throne peacefully had her coronation on a beautiful summer's day. Victoria's coronation included parties, parades, and spectacles for all who made the trip to London.
