National Catholic Register, Edward Pentin:
The need to properly preserve the remains of St. Thomas More’s head and to be able to properly venerate the first-class relic has taken on an added urgency as it continues to deteriorate in an underground vault in an Anglican church in Canterbury.
Ever since St. Thomas’ devoted daughter Margaret Roper daringly rescued her martyred father’s head from London Bridge in 1535 and had it buried with her in their family vault, the relic has rested under a side chapel of St. Dunstan’s Church, which was once Catholic but has belonged to the Anglican church since the Reformation. Report is here.
