The monument
Edmund has a large monument with his effigy in mail armour with crossed legs. His long surcoat has traces of the arms of the earldom, the head is supported by two angels and his feet rest on a lion.

His life
Edmund was born in London on 16th January 1245, second son of Henry III and his queen Eleanor of Provence. His brother became Edward I. He was created Earl of Leicester and in 1267 Earl of Lancaster.

It is now thought she may be buried under a slab with Cosmati work in St Edward the Confessor's chapel but the inscription is mostly obscured by Henry V's chantry. This is the northern slab w...
