Richard's burial
Richard's burial
2012-09-14 11:00:20
Just thought you might like to know that any wish to see Richard buried in Westminster or York is very highly unlikely.
The law apparently says one has to get official permission from a government department to dig up someone's remains, and then only if you agree to reinter them near where they were originally buried. Leicester cathedral is just across the road from the dig and already has a memorial plaque, so that seems the best solution, if it is our King.
As we don't know exactly where Queen Anne is buried, or Prince Edward, does it not seem logical? I think the cathedral is already on board with paying for the burial and tomb if it proves to be Richard. Who would pay for a burial in York for example? As for the Abbey.......
Bureaucracy could hinder it for years!

I think Leicester's highly appropriate - but I am biassed, originally being from Ashby de la Zouch, about 40 minutes up the road and where Lord Hastings was based.

Well Westminster Abbey is a no no...and I don't hear any offers resonating from the direction of York...which has links with Richard...blow them (I choose my words carefully)...Let Leicester have Richard and the honour...at the end of the day it is Leicester that has allowed the dig and for all I know helped fund it...i.e. Leicester council tax payers...and Leicester Abbey came forward to offer a place for Richard even before it was known he would be found..God Bless them all....Eileen

Not just a matter of funds. York is nowhere near Leicester where the body was discovered so you would have to jump through hoops to get permission. Then there are the church authorities at York. Would they be willing to give over a place in their cathedral for Richard's remains? Would they be willing to build some sort of monument/memorial?

Exactly my thoughts Eileen.
I think it was the council and university who funded the dig.

Frankly I think the government should pay for it, wherever he is buried. He's the King of England!

Members of the Society definitely contributed, I certain Phil Stone did and also Philippa...names are going to be published in the Bulletin eventually....
I never knew about this contributing towards the costs...
I would be more than willing to contribute to any fund in aid any memorial which I am sure there will eventually be...
I have been trying to think of any recent burials in either Westminster or York...and I cannot think of a one...The most recent I can recall is Anne Mowbray in about 1962 in Westminster Abbey....supposedly near to the original burial place and that of her husband's remain...also supposed...in the Urn..Eileen

Isn't Fotheringay not far from Leicester. It is the yorkist church but isn't a big place. I would have thought the cost would be reimbursed especially as it is now compulsory to pay to visit the cathedrals. York doesn't need the visitors and is very expensive. Ironically the Richard III museum is one of the cheapest. Wasn't Richard born at Fotheringay? I can't remember but would love to pay my respects.

Re: Richard's burial

For me, York Minster would be right in so many ways. This was where Richard considered his spiritual home to be. Remember he staged his Coronation all over again here as he didn't consider himself properly king without a crowning in York!
The only kings buried here were Northumbrians, and all long before the present Minster was built, so no trace of them remains. The only Royalty buried here now is William of Hatfield, a short lived son of Edward III.
What the Minster authorities would have to balance is the tremendous boost for business that the tomb of a King of England would bring them, and the danger that the grave may become so much the centre of attention that the regular religious life of the Cathedral would be undermined.
Westminster and Windsor have kings by the dozen, while Leicester's only connection is a place of burial long since destroyed as a spiritual centre.

He did not have a second coronation in York. He had his son Edward installed as Prince of Wales there. This coronation tale was a southern rumour from his enemies trying to spread discord and play up the fear of northerners, mainly courtesy of Queen Margaret's army, in the south.

Richard's burial
2013-03-04 12:13:02
Hello everybody. I have just rejoined the Society after an absence of over thirty years, and have not had time yet to read all the recent correspondence on where Richard should be reinterred. Has Gloucester Cathedral been suggested? He was Duke of Gloucester and had connections there. Gloucester would therefore be my choice. Unpopular, I imagine, but nevertheless a site that would do him due honour. And Gloucester already has a king, of course. Two would be very nice indeed, especially if the second were to be Richard. All right, I'll leave quietly now...

This is great news, though I shall
still try to be there in person myself, if us real die hard
Ricardians will be allowed inside the cathedral, which I doubt.
I am also concerned about who is making the programmes about Richard that will accompany the events. Let us hope Ricardians will be taking part, so that the King gets the fair assessment he so richly deserves.

I'd love to go too but I really don't think that I could cope with the emotion. Be interesting to see who they allow in the cathedral and how they decide. Knowing Leicester they'll be selling tickets. Channel 4 seem to have been reasonably sensitive so far in their previous productions, I'm sure other channels might not have taken the same approach.Sharon

If they cover it properly, I may well get a better view on TV. I intend to follow all the coverage that Channel. 4 provide.

I'd love to go too but I really don't think that I could cope with the emotion. Be interesting to see who they allow in the cathedral and how they decide. Knowing Leicester they'll be selling tickets. Channel 4 seem to have been reasonably sensitive so far in their previous productions, I'm sure other channels might not have taken the same approach.Sharon

This is great news, though I shall still try to be there in person myself, if us real die hard Ricardians will be allowed inside the cathedral, which I doubt.
I am also concerned about who is making the programmes about Richard that will accompany the events. Let us hope Ricardians will be taking part, so that the King gets the fair assessment he so richly deserves.

I wish we could congregate somewhere and watch it together! I am hoping it will be rebroadcast in the U. S., or at least posted somewhere so we can watch!
