Battle of Prestonpans - The Prestonpans Tapestry

The Prestonpans Tapestry

The Prestonpans Tapestry was unveiled on 26 July 2010. With 103 panels (each 1m long), it is about 100 ft (30m) longer than the Bayeux Tapestry. Inspired by Gordon Baron Prestoungrange, designed by local artist Andrew Crummy, and executed by over 200 volunteer embroiderers, the tapestry has already toured Scotland, and current and future venues include the Scottish Parliament, the Scottish Storytelling Centre, and Cockenzie power station.
