When was the construction Westminster Abbey finished?
Construction of the original abbey began in the lifetime of Mellitus who died in 624AD, so its origins are way before this. A stone abbey was built around 1045 - 1050 by Edward the Confessor whose remains are still buried in a large shrine within the present abbey. The only surviving image of this abbey is to be found in the Bayeux Tapestry, dating after the Norman Conquest of 1066. The present building was started by Henry III in 1245 and work continued rght up until 1517 under the reign of Richard II. The abbey has been the place of the coronation of all English monarchs since 1066, and also the site of many royal weddings, funerals and baptisms. It is not a cathedral, nor an abbey proper, nor a church within the Church of England, despite using Anglican liturgy. It is termed a 'royal peculiar' (or peculier) meaning that it lies outside the jurisdiction of any diocesan bishop, and its clergy are answerable directly to the Queen. It has been thus since before the stone abbey built by Edward the Confessor, and it can therefore truly be thought if as a national church for Britain.
