Plan to explore the past of Reading Abbey


Stephanie A. Mann has an interesting piece on her excellent blog Supremacy and Survival: The English Reformation about the possibilities of further excavations at the site of Reading Abbey, and in particular the search for the remains of the founder King Henry I. She also writes about the fate of the last Abbot Bl.Hign Cook of faringdon who was martyred in 1539.
