The body of Ecgwine 1 was taken to the monastery he had built.

Evesham was the foundation of Bishop Ecgwine 1. There had been a little church there from olden days, possibly the work of the British. There Ecgwine 1 spent many watchful nights in solitude, and was found worthy to enjoy the consolation of seeing the Mother of God and speaking with her. She told him explicitly and unambiguously to found her a monastery at that place, a pleasure for her, though a toil for him. |

Wigstan 8's body was found in the column of light; in revealed the crime in its deep cavern, and proved the wickedness of the murder. His remains, raised by his attentive relatives, were placed at Repton, a monastery famous in those days, though now it is a vill of the earl of Chester. Its glory decayed with the years, and now he lies in Evesham. |
