Still Waters Posted August 15, 2017 #4 Share Posted August 15, 2017 The article is almost 12 months old. Here's what the BBC published at the time - Quote Graves have been discovered during an archaeological project attempting to map the resting place of King Henry I. Radar technology used around the Reading Abbey Quarter has located graves behind the high altar of the monastery. The discovery has been described as a "significant next step" to discovering the remains of the son of William the Conqueror. http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-berkshire-37340498 There doesn't appear to be any updates. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They're currently second at the moment, so it's looking promising for me. I'm looking forward to the £2,500. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
