About these numbers These percentages indicate the number of Find a Grave memorials that have a grave photo or GPS coordinates. We don't know the total number of burials in a cemetery, so we cannot calculate a percentage of those with memorials, photos or GPS coordinates.

An original Saxon nunnery was destroyed by King Canute, and rebuilt as a Benedictine monastery in 1043 by Leofric, the Earl of Mercia, and his wife, Lady Godiva, dedicated to Saint Mary. The See was moved to Litchfield at the dissolution of the monasteries in 1538, and the priory fell to ruins. The west end of the cathedral is now open excavations.

BURIALS ARE BETWEEN 1100 AND 1538
