John Shelton Memorial Lecture, The Tapestry in St Mary\u2019s Guildhall by Dr Mark Webb

The Coventry Tapestry, one of the City’s great treasures, is over 500 years old and believed to be the oldest tapestry still in its original place in Britain. It has survived political and religious change, the Blitz and inevitable wear of time. There were some alterations made to it over the years, but it is still largely as it was originally conceived.
Dr Webb is Fundraising and Development Manager for the King's Foundation. He is an expert in late medieval history and archaeology, organising conferences and projects and heavily involved with the Medieval Coventry Charity, as well as being a trustee of The Historic Coventry Trust. He has published widely and has just released a book on the Tapestry, limited copies of which will be available at the lecture at a cost of £20
