There is a general expectation that royal tombs, particularly those of kings and queens, will be found in London. Certainly they can be found in the capital's major churches. However, the cathedrals of the provinces have their share too. King Edward II (1284-1327) was buried in Gloucester Cathedral after a period of turmoil in which his queen turned against him and his place as king was taken by his fourteen year old son. The cause of his demise at Berkeley Castle, Gloucestershire, has long been thought to be murder.
