This 1860 window by Clayton & Bell depicts the coronation of Henry III in St Peter's Abbey (later cathedral), Gloucester, on the 28th of October 1216. A second coronation was performed at Westminster Abbey on 7th May 1220, Westminster Abbey, because Pope Honorius III did not consider that the first coronation had been conducted properly.
