Coronations

According to our article on King Harold Godwinson, he was crowned in the Abby... but this article says the first was William the Conqueror. Clarify please. Blueboar (talk) 01:31, 31 December 2020 (UTC)

This article is correct - Harold was "probably" crowned at the abbey, but William's was the first documented coronation there. This is actually mentioned in Harold's article, but the lead there is misleading - I've changed it.----Pontificalibus 06:33, 31 December 2020 (UTC)
