GREENWICH HERITAGE CENTRE

It is believed to be around 150 years old and has always been on the Woolwich Arsenal site, where the Greenwich Heritage Centre is located. It depicts Edward III inspecting his artillery and the design may have been taken from an earlier piece of tapestry . The base of the window measures 252cm and the height is 118cm.
