Leicester Cathedral prepares for King Richard III reburial

Leicester Cathedral says it is 'delighted' to announce that its proposals to redesign the inside of the building have been approved.

It says the proposals will mean the cathedral can adapt to take into account changes that will allow for the reinterment of King Richard lll. They also include improvements to the layout of the building for worship and for two new stained glass windows.

The battle over where the remains of King Richard III should be laid to rest ended last month. Judges have postponed their final decision until they have considered the evidence further.
