Oh, that is lovely...... I can see not fitting for the Leicester Cathedral, but glorious. It WOULD be perfect in a side chapel. But, oh my, I am certain that would run in the millions to build, and take some time to complete.

The centrepiece is of course Richard Beauchamp, Anne's grandfather. Her mother and father appear as weepers round the tomb. It is a beautiful place, and as the humdrum from the main church goes on in the main church (which is a big tourist spot) still preserves some calm. But then I'm biased, I'm from Warwickshire and it is pretty, but not overly full, depending on the type of memorial. It wouldn't necessarily be my first choice, but it is more fitting for 'quiet contemplation' than the middle of a cathedral which is emphasising its 21st century links.

Very nice. But even a plain and simple small side-chapel, say 15ft by 20ft,
added at either Leicester or Sutton Cheney and containing a medium-sized
table tomb for Richard (a very large one would look like over-compensation,
considering how short he was!), a small altar and some pews would enormously
increase the revenue of whatever church it was added to because people would
come from all over the world wanting to be married in Richard's presence,
and the church could reasonably ask for a donation.

I love the place....being a Warwickshire girl Hilary you probably know that is where the townspeople went with anything they could carry when the town of Warwick was burning down. That is why most of the buildings..not all thankfully..are Georgian Eileen

Yes, most of the church burned down, so we're lucky to still have the chapel. As I once said to Karen I wore the bear and ragged staff on my blazer for a few years. And the Castle Balti opposite the castle walls is pretty good too - Warwick moves with the times!

I was 'Very Touched' by the Effigy of Dudley's Son 'The Impe' who died in childhood, what a pity it wasn't his stepson the Earl of Essex!!

His accusing of Elizabeth's Jewish/Portuguese Physician, Dr. Lopez of poisoning her, which resulted in the poor man being 'Hung, Drawn & Quartered' unjustly. 

Not an episode that reflects well on Elizabeth, either, I am sorry to say.

The Bard may have used Lopez as a model for Shylock,
 
Kind Regards,
 
Arthur.

And one which compares badly with Richard knighting his Portuguese Jewish
