There is no Church of St Swithin, in Winchester,

The Church of St Swithun, is the parish church of Winchester, but…

Therefore it may be wrong location for a burial in 1135.

However …it is more likely to be..

<<Winchester Cathedral is a Church of England cathedral in Winchester, Hampshire, England.
