GIRL'S 1829 NEEDLEWORK PICTURE OF BRIDGE KEPT AS 'NATIONAL TREASURE'
Holyhead, Anglesey and Bangor Mail
|July 02, 2025
A piece of needlework dating from the 19th century will remain here in Gwynedd after a successful campaign by Storiel, Bangor.
-

The needlework sampler was at risk of leaving the country, and the Reviewing Committee on the Export of Works of Art and Objects of Cultural Interest (RCEWA), which is supported by the Arts Council, deemed it a national treasure and recommended that the Secretary of State for Culture, Media and Sport put a temporary export license deferral on the work. Storiel succeeded in its bid to purchase the work, ensuring that the historically-significant piece is kept locally, and is now available for the public to view.
