A saint's throat in a box.
In 1809 a small wooden box with a fragment of bone and a parchment slip that crumbled to powder was found in a pew wall at All Saints, Brixworth. Friends of Brixworth Church say it may be the throat bone of St Boniface, citing a parish guild of St Boniface; its identity is unproven.
