Kings, poets, scientists and one soldier with no name: Westminster Abbey was built and filled by the wish to lie near someone. Walk the Abbey's own route from the queue to the Great West Door, with the choirman who put his hand into a saint's coffin, the students who carried off the Stone of Scone, and the funeral Darwin never asked for.
