Richard III coffin rosary blessed at priory

Historian Dr. John Ashdown-Hill gives King Richard III a special rosary on his way, which will be buried with him in his coffin.
Putting a rosary in a grave with the dead is a special Catholic tradition and a very sensitive way to uphold a ritual King Richard III might have known and appreciated.
