Richard III's bones placed inside their coffin at the University of Leicester

From Leicester-

Richard III's bones have finally been placed inside the specially created oak coffin that will be placed inside the tomb at Leicester Cathedral.

The remains were laid out inside a lead ossuary, on Sunday, before being enclosed within the coffin crafted by Richard III's 17th great grandnephew, Michael Ibsen.

A rosary was placed inside and the final layer was a piece of Irish linen embroidered by Elizabeth Nokes of the Richard III Society.

Linen bags, made by the pupils of the Richard III infant's school in Leicester, were used for wrapping small bones and scientific samples.
