A search for bones of Henry I is planned in Reading - BBC News

A search for the bones of King Henry I is being planned in Reading.

The project is backed by Philippa Langley, who helped find the remains of Richard III in Leicester.

She believes Henry I's bones are buried near the ruins of Reading Abbey and is interested in the search "because he is our forgotten king".

English Heritage has pledged its support to carry out ground penetrating radar (GPR) research of the abbey area, which aims to be carried out this year.

I hope the team will successful find the bones of Henry I. It will be hard to find bones from almost 1,000 years ago.
