Ancient royal tomb is uncovered

Experts believe they have uncovered the tomb of England's King Edward the Confessor in Westminster Abbey.

Archaeologists using radar have also discovered a series of royal tombs dating back to the 13th and 14th centuries in under-floor chambers.

The discoveries were made as experts investigated the construction of the Abbey's 13th-century mosaic pavement.
Consultant archaeologist Dr Warwick Rodwell said it was "of historical interest unparalleled anywhere else".
