  Buried in the chapter house of Llanthony Priory outside Gloucester, which
  he had founded. This was the priory founded to receive those who had fled from
  the old priory of Llanthony in Monmouthshire, which, however, still continued.
  The new Llanthony and the Abbey of Gloucester disputed about his body, and the
  dispute was determined by Simon, Bishop of Worcester.  The monks of Gloucester
  consented that the body should be buried at Llanthony at the request of the
  Bishop of Worcester, Hereford and St. Davids, and of Roger, the dead Earl;s
  son, on condition that Llnathony granted to Gloucester that they would not
  receive for burial the said Roger or his wife, their heirs or any lord of
  Gloucester Castle of anyone soever dying therein without the leave of the
  Abbot of Gloucester (28 Dec 1143).  In the chapter house at the head of Miles
  were buried three of his sons, ROger, Earl of Hereford and Constable of
  England, his brother Henry, lord of Brecknick and also Constable of England,
  his brother Michel, also Constable of England; on the right of Miles was
  buried his wife Sibyl, who after his death entered into religion in the said
  house; and on her right hand the worhipful Matron of Llanthony, Lady Margaret,
  who married Humphrey do Bohun, who had the earldon of Hereford and
  constableship of England and lieth at the foot of the said Sibyl.  On the
  other hand Ludy, 3rd dau of Miles, wife of Herbert FitzHerbert [Ref: CP VI
