Navy ceremony for Lincolnshire explorer's reburial
A grand naval ceremony is being planned for the reburial of Lincolnshire explorer Matthew Flinders.
The Navy captain, whose remains were rediscovered during work on HS2 in 2019, is credited with popularising the name Australia and for being the first to sail around the continent.
His remains will be reburied in St.Mary and the Holy Rood church in Donington, where he was born in 1774.
