- Poets' Corner
Image Poets corner.jpg thumb 250px Poets Corner in Westminster Abbey Poets Corner is the name traditionally given to a section of the South Transept of Westminster Abbey because of the good number of poets, playwrights, and writers buried and commemorated there. The first person to be interred in Poets Corner was Geoffrey Chaucer in 1400. Over the centuries, a tradition has grown up of interring or memorialising people there in recognition of their contribution to British culture. In the overwhelming majority of cases, the honour is awarded to writers. In 2009 the founders of the Royal Ballet were commemorated in a memorial floor stone and on 25 September 2010 the writer Elizabeth Gaskell was celebrated with the dedication of a panel in the memorial window. ref name Gaskell http www.westminster abbey.org our history people elizabeth gaskell Elizabeth Gaskell .

The erection of his magnificent tomb, however, by Nicholas Brigham in 1556 to where Chaucer s remains were then transferred and the nearby burial of Edmund Spenser in 1599 started a tradition that is still upheld. The area also houses the tombs of several Canon priest Canons and Dean Christianity Dean s of the Abbey, as well as the grave of Old Tom Parr Thomas Parr who, it is said, died at the age of 152 in 1635 after having seen ten sovereigns on the throne.
