The relics of Saint Edmund have been lost since the Reformation, but recently a rumour ran that the bones of Edmund lie buried in the ruins of St Edmundsbury Abbey. This led to the foundation of the Heritage Partnership, which aims to restore and reinterpret the legacy of St Edmund. Converting the ruins of an Abbey into a religious heritage, this process of heritagisation seeks to reclaim a Pre-Reformation legacy to repair relations. This project produces a monograph on the subject.
