St Mary's Hall, Warwickshire

St Mary's Hall is a mediæval guildhall in Bayley Lane, Coventry, Warwickshire. The building was built between 1340-1342 and much altered and extended in 1460. A marble statue of Lady Godiva by William Calder Marshall is housed in an oriel with fragmented stained-glass windows off the Great Hall. The guildhall also houses the Coventry Tapestry, created between 1505-1515. The tapestry and the stained glass window above it are considered one of the last shrines to the posthumous cult of Henry VI, who is featured along with Queen Margaret of Anjou. The hall is within the council area of Coventry.
