Faversham Abbey

King Stephen and his wife Queen Matilda and their son Eustace are all buried in Faversham Abbey, Kent, but the exact location is not known - the abbey was demolished in 1538, but with the discovery of Richard III in a Leicestershire car park - attention has now turned to Faversham!  The site of the Abbey is currently a grammar school. Faversham is an historic town with over 500 listed buildings.
