necropolis of royality, scientists, artists, musicians. the note-worthy and those who thought the were. the tomb of edward confessor is the focal point. a medieval pligrimage destination. the 13 th century abbey fabric is english gothic/perpendicular built by henry III, with many varing styles represented in tombs & shrines. the coronation chair, the quads, museum displays must be seen.
