We are delighted at Lanes Fine Jewellery to hear the news that King Richard III’s remains will stay in Leicester. The King’s remains will be reburied with a dignified service at Leicester Cathedral.
The skeleton of the King was found a stones throw from our shop under a council car park in 2012 after extensive work by Leicester University. Despite a challenge from a group of people claiming to be distant relations of the king it has been ruled that he should stay in Leicester where he has lain for the last 500 years.
