Bayeux Tapestry is to be displayed in BRITAIN | Daily Mail Online

QuoteThe Bayeux Tapestry is set to come to Britain after Emmanuel Macron agreed to allow the artwork to leave France for the first time in 950 years.

Preparations are under way to move the fabric - which shows the conquest of England by Norman invaders - across the Channel in a bid to show the strength of the British-French relationship in the wake of the Brexit vote.

President Macron is expected to make the announcement of the momentous loan on Thursday when he meets with Theresa May at Sandhurst.
