Coventry Cathedral and the origin of Godiva

There was a lady named Godiva. She was the wife of Earl Leofric. She begged her husband to stop a heavy tax on the people of Coventry. Leofric said he would do this if Godiva rode naked through Coventry. She complied and rode through the streets naked, and covered herself with her long hair . The townspeople stayed indoors and did not look at her, to show their respect to this heroine. You can find the statue of Lady Godiva in Coventry. And it is a brand new of a world famous chocolate.
