Westminster Abbey is a large church located west of the Palace of Westminster, in Westminster, London.

In 1661, during the coronation of King Charles II, he noticed his general George Monck speaking with a man holding an Apple of Eden, but had to bow his head to receive his crown from the Archbishop William Juxon before he could look further.
