This is the Abbey's muniment room, where our archive collection is kept. The room is set high above the Abbey floor with a view down into Poets' Corner, and on the partition wall is a painting of a white hart - the badge of Richard II. Our archive is one of the oldest in England. The documents we hold here include the records of the Abbey from the tenth century to the present day, and include everything from royal charters and records of coronations to property leases and tradesmen's bills. #WestminsterAbbey #WestminsterAbbeyLondon #Museum30 #Archive #FromTheArchive #history #ArtHistory #medieval #architecture
