If you click on the third photo to enlarge it you can see the location of his grave marked out with black lines just in front of the altar. There was talk of moving his body to Westminster Abbey but that did not happen. Instead there is a memorial statue of Shakespeare situated in poets corner in Westminster Abbey.
