CBE, MBE, Dame, and I think any medal won in service of theQueen
The last person buried there was The Unknown Warrior in 1920 . But Laurence Oliviers ashes were interred there in Poets Corner in 1989.
I don't think they actually bury anyone there anymore ,it's stuffed with graves .But I think the great and the good can have their ashes interred if they so wish.
