The statue, or perhaps statues, of Our Lady of Westminster were of national significance being in the abbey and in the royal palace at Westminster. The one in the abbey is normally believed to be central to King Richard II’s decision to consecrate England to Our Lady as her Dowry in 1381-2 in the wake of the Peasant’s Revolt.
My introduction to this very significant shrine, and to its modern renewal, can be seen at Our Lady of Westminster
