Hot damn going after 'ole Al' eh......good stuff.
 
His remains are believed to lie in an unmarked grave in Winchester and a team is reportedly applying for permission to dig up the spot at St Bartholomew’s Church. It is thought Alfred’s skeleton could be found among a collection of bones there.......

I visited the cathedral last year and walked over the spot where Alfred's bones are supposedly mixed with the remains of other dead Saxons
