Wednesday 1 August 2012: Prestonpans tapestry

It was made to rival the Bayeaux.

It's currently showing at St Mary's Cathedral in the West End and depicts Bonnie Prince Charlie's journey to the Battle of Prestonpans. I quite like it, even though I don't really know the story and didn't have time to look at all the parts of it, here is detail of one of the panels.
