Margaret Pole the Blessed, Countess of Salisbury ( 14 August 1473-27 May 1541 ) was an English peeress.
She was the daughter of George of Clarence, who was the brother of King Edward IV and King Richard III.
She was one of two women in sixteenth-century England to be a peeress in her own right with no titled husband.
One of the few surviving members of the Plantagenet dynasty after the Wars of the Roses, she was executed in 1541 at the command of King Henry VIII, who was her cousin Elizabeth's son.
