[h2]Kingston trivia quiz answer[h2]
Yesterday we asked you: "All Saints Church is believed to be where early Saxon Kings of England were crowned.
But just how many royals received their title in Kingston?"
Today we can reveal that up to seven kings are believed to have been crowned in our town, including the first King of England Æthelstan in 925.
The kings are thought to have received their crown on a coronation stone found in a chapel of All Saints Church 300 years ago.
