Unusual coffin discovered at Grey Friars Church site


In February they found King Richard IIIs body beneath a parking lot at the site of the old Grey Friars Church.  You can see an earlier post about the find that has a link to the BBC story here.

They went back to the site recently and their efforts produced another interesting find.  The fully intact stone casket contained a lead coffin.  They think they might know whose grave they have found.  Read more about the recent find here.
