In 1511 the churchwardens of St James Parish Church in Dadlington petitioned Henry VIII to license them to collect donations in the Midlands towards building a chapel, also to be dedicated to St James, to be 'standing upon a parcell of the grounde wher Bosworth feld otherwise called Dadlyngton feld...was done', and for a stipend to support a chantry priest to pray for the souls of those slain. In the early nineteenth century there were still 'indented spaces of ground' visible said to be 'the graves of the victims of this bloody battle'. The victims and survivors are also commemorated at the Bosworth Battlefield Heritage Centre with a memorial on top of Ambion Hill.
