King Charles III removes Prince Andrew’s royal titles and residence at Windsor amid renewed outrage over Jeffrey Epstein-related allegations, as Buckingham Palace confirms the move.

King Charles strips Andrew of royal titles, Windsor home

King Charles III removes Prince Andrew&rsquo;s royal titles and residence at Windsor amid renewed outrage over Jeffrey Epstein-related allegations, as Buckingham Palace confirms the move.

King Charles III is stripping his younger brother Andrew of his royal titles and ousting him from his long-term residence on the Windsor estate, the palace said on Thursday, the latest fallout to hit the scandal-plagued royal over the Jeffrey Epstein affair.
"Prince Andrew will now be known as Andrew Mountbatten Windsor," Buckingham Palace said, adding Charles had begun the formal process to remove all his brother's titles.
Andrew has also been told to move out of his long-time home on Windsor Castle's sprawling grounds, and he will move "to alternative private accommodation" as soon as possible.
The announcement followed a torrent of outrage at renewed accusations of sexual assault made by one of Jeffrey Epstein's main accusers against the 65-year-old, who has denied the charges.
"These censures are deemed necessary, notwithstanding the fact that he continues to deny the allegations against him," the palace said.
"Their Majesties wish to make clear that their thoughts and utmost sympathies have been, and will remain with, the victims and survivors of any and all forms of abuse," it added.
It comes days after the posthumous publication of Virginia Giuffre's memoir, in which the victim of US sex offender Epstein reiterated in shocking detail allegations that she was trafficked to have sex with Andrew three times, including twice when she was only 17.
It is understood that Andrew did not object to the king's decision, and that the UK government has been consulted.
Giuffre took her own life in April, aged 41, while Epstein died by suicide in 2019 in prison awaiting trial on sex-trafficking charges.
Giuffre's family, which had pushed for Andrew's title of prince to be removed, hailed the move Thursday, saying in a statement to the BBC that "today, she declares a victory".
"Today, an ordinary American girl from an ordinary American family brought down a British prince with her truth and extraordinary courage," they said.
"Virginia Roberts Giuffre, our sister, a child when she was sexually assaulted by Andrew, never stopped fighting for accountability for what had happened to her and countless other survivors like her."
Andrew, who is the second son of the late queen Elizabeth II, has repeatedly denied the allegations.
But he had agreed to pay US and Australian citizen Giuffre millions of dollars in 2022 to end her civil sexual assault case against him.
 - Public anger -
Adding to the outcry following Giuffre's bestselling memoir, The Times revealed last week that the prince had only paid a minimal rent for the past two decades on his Royal Lodge home in the Windsor estate, where he lives with ex-wife Sarah Ferguson.
The arrangement stems from a seemingly favourable 2003 deal for the mansion owned by the Crown Estate, the royal family's independently run land and property holdings.
Moves to oust Andrew from Royal Lodge have gathered pace in the past days, given new urgency by the pending move of Charles's son Prince William, heir to the throne, his wife Kate and their children, into a new home not far away from the lodge.
In yet another revelation, the BBC reported this week that Andrew hosted Epstein, his girlfriend Ghislaine Maxwell -- who is imprisoned for trafficking -- and former US film producer Harvey Weinstein, now jailed for rape, at the Lodge in 2006 for his daughter Beatrice's 18th birthday.
Meanwhile, public anger has grown. On Monday the king was heckled during a visit to a cathedral when a man in the crowd shouted out: "How long have you known about Andrew and Epstein?"
Andrew however had dug his heels in, and was reportedly only prepared to leave the Royal Lodge if he could move into Frogmore Cottage, the former home of his nephew Prince Harry and his wife Meghan.
Andrew was also reportedly demanding that Ferguson be allowed to move into Adelaide Cottage, once it is vacated by William and his family.
It was understood Thursday that Andrew will move to the king's estate in Sandringham, eastern Norfolk, and will be privately funded by Charles.
Ferguson will make her own arrangements.
His daughters, Beatrice and Eugenie, will retain their titles as princesses.

King Charles III to host Donald Trump and Melania at Windsor Castle during a state visit to the UK from September 17–19, 2025.

King Charles to host US President Trump for State Visit in September

King Charles III to host Donald Trump and Melania at Windsor Castle during a state visit to the UK from September 17&ndash;19, 2025.

Britain&rsquo;s King Charles III will host US President Donald Trump for a State Visit at Windsor Castle between September 17 and 19, Buckingham Palace announced here on Monday.
Plans for the State Visit emerged in February when British Prime Minister Keir Starmer handed over the 76-year-old monarch&rsquo;s formal invitation to Trump at the White House during his visit to Washington DC.
The two-night visit marks an unprecedented second State Visit for Trump, who was hosted by the late Queen Elizabeth II during his first presidential term in 2019.
&ldquo;The President of the United States of America, President Donald J. Trump, accompanied by the First Lady Mrs Melania Trump, has accepted an invitation from His Majesty The King to pay a State Visit to the United Kingdom from 17 September to 19 September 2025,&rdquo; reads the palace statement.
&ldquo;His Majesty The King will host the President and Mrs Trump at Windsor Castle,&rdquo; it states.
They will be hosted by King Charles and Queen Camilla at their royal residence at Windsor in south-east England as Buckingham Palace in London remains under renovation.
Further details of the programme and the pomp and ceremony associated with the visit are expected in the coming months in the lead up to the visit.
Their itinerary is expected to involve a customary ceremonial welcome followed by a lavish state banquet at St. George's Hall in Windsor Castle.
Most recently, French President Emmanuel Macron was hosted for a State Visit by the senior royals at Windsor last week. While Macron went on to address the UK Parliament, Trump may not follow suit as the House of Commons will not be sitting over the party conference period in September-October.
"It is a great, great honour&hellip; at Windsor, that's really something," Trump had said on receiving the King&rsquo;s letter from Starmer earlier this year.
The State Visit invite is widely seen as part of the British government&rsquo;s efforts to reinforce the UK-US "special relationship" across defence and security as well as trade, amid Trump&rsquo;s tariff-led approach to economic relations with countries around the world.&nbsp;

18-yr-old pink e-rickshaw driver from UP wins UK's royal award

She was honoured for inspiring other young girls through her work with the government's Pink E-rickshaw initiative, which provides safe transport for other women.

An 18-year-old rickshaw driver from a village in Bahraich district of Uttar Pradesh is overjoyed on meeting King Charles III at Buckingham Palace after she collected a prestigious women&rsquo;s empowerment award in London this week.
Arti received the Amal Clooney Women&rsquo;s Empowerment Award, named after the world-renowned human rights barrister, at the Prince&rsquo;s Trust Awards in London followed by a meeting with the 75-year-old monarch on Wednesday.
She was honoured for inspiring other young girls through her work with the government's Pink E-rickshaw initiative, which provides safe transport for other women with a mission to drive change, quite literally.
&ldquo;I take pride in being able to inspire other girls who face similar challenges. This newfound independence has allowed me to see the world in a different light. Now, I am able to fulfil not only my dreams but also those of my daughter," said Arti, who has a five-year-old daughter for whom she has bought some cake and a pair of shoes on her very first visit to London.
&ldquo;It has been an unbelievably amazing experience, meeting the King who was so nice and sent his namaste to my family back home too. He also listened carefully as I spoke about how much I love driving my e-rickshaw, which does not run on polluting diesel or petrol but one that I charge at home every night,&rdquo; she shared, speaking in Hindi.
Founded by King Charles when he was the Prince of Wales, the Prince&rsquo;s Trust International will now transform into the King&rsquo;s Trust International as it continues its work supporting young people across 20 countries through employment, education and enterprise programmes. The Prince&rsquo;s Trust women&rsquo;s empowerment award recognises the global work of young women who have succeeded against the odds and made a lasting difference to those around them.
&ldquo;This year&rsquo;s winner, Arti, is an inspirational example of someone whose trailblazing work in a typically male arena makes women in her community safer. Arti is determined to create a world where her daughter will not face the obstacles that she has faced, and she is already making a difference through her example,&rdquo; said Amal Clooney, the British activist-barrister after whom the award is named.
For the reception at Buckingham Palace, Arti arrived in a pink rickshaw &ndash; showcasing it not only as a sustainable mode of transport but also an idea and a movement.
In July 2023, Project Lehar, delivered in partnership with Prince&rsquo;s Trust International and the Aga Khan Foundation (AKF), introduced Arti to the Indian government&rsquo;s Pink E-Rickshaw scheme, an initiative aimed at empowering women and expanding their income earning opportunities across the country. Under the innovative scheme, pink e-rickshaws were provided by the Bahraich district administration with a subsidy for women drivers.
The scheme aims to increase employment opportunities for vulnerable women, especially widows and single mothers like Arti, while also improving women&rsquo;s access to safe transport, thereby increasing their mobility and independence.
&ldquo;Arti truly embodies the courage, perseverance and determination to succeed against all odds, emerging as a role model for women in her village. We are immensely grateful for our partnership with the Prince&rsquo;s Trust International that has enabled us to support young women to realise their dreams and aspirations. Here&rsquo;s to many more Arti&rsquo;s &ndash; believe in yourself, and never let anything dim the light of your ambitions,&rdquo; said Tinni Sawhney, CEO of AKF (India), who accompanied Arti to the award ceremony and also helped interpret for her.
Will Straw, CEO of the Prince&rsquo;s Trust International, added: &ldquo;I am so proud of Arti on winning this year&rsquo;s women&rsquo;s empowerment award. She is breaking societal barriers and setting an example through her strength and determination.
&ldquo;Our work in India gives young people the opportunity to build valuable life skills and find meaningful work. Through Project Lehar and our partnerships with the Aga Khan Foundation, we will continue supporting young women to achieve their ambitions.&rdquo;

The King will be postponing his public duties on medical advice but will continue with his duties as a Head of State such as essential paperwork and private meetings.

Britain's King Charles III diagnosed with cancer

The King will be postponing his public duties on medical advice but will continue with his duties as a Head of State such as essential paperwork and private meetings.

Britain&rsquo;s King Charles III has been diagnosed with cancer following his recent hospital procedure for a benign prostate enlargement, Buckingham Palace said in a statement on Monday.
While the palace has not specified the form of cancer, it said the 75-year-old monarch has started treatment and remains &ldquo;wholly positive&rdquo;.
Meanwhile, he will be postponing his public duties on medical advice but will continue with his duties as a Head of State such as essential paperwork and private meetings.
&ldquo;During The King&rsquo;s recent hospital procedure for benign prostate enlargement, a separate issue of concern was noted. Subsequent diagnostic tests have identified a form of cancer,&rdquo; reads the Buckingham Palace statement.
&ldquo;His Majesty has today commenced a schedule of regular treatments, during which time he has been advised by doctors to postpone public-facing duties. Throughout this period, His Majesty will continue to undertake State business and official paperwork as usual,&rdquo; it said.
The statement noted that the King is grateful to his medical team for their swift intervention, which was made possible thanks to his recent hospital procedure.
&ldquo;He remains wholly positive about his treatment and looks forward to returning to full public duty as soon as possible. His Majesty has chosen to share his diagnosis to prevent speculation and in the hope it may assist public understanding for all those around the world who are affected by cancer,&rdquo; it added.
Over the weekend, King Charles was photographed waving after he and Queen Camilla attended a church service in Sandringham, Norfolk, marking his first public appearance since being discharged from the London Clinic last Monday.
He has since travelled from Sandringham to London to begin treatment as an outpatient and is now at his palace in London.
&ldquo;Wishing His Majesty a full and speedy recovery. I have no doubt he'll be back to full strength in no time and I know the whole country will be wishing him well," British Prime Minister Rishi Sunak said on X.
The King is said to have informed both his sons, William and Harry, personally about his diagnosis and Prince William is in regular contact with his father.
Meanwhile, sources said that Prince Harry, who lives in the US, has spoken to his father and plans to travel to the UK to see him in the coming days.

King Charles and Queen Camilla waved to their supporters as they made their first appearance at the balcony of the Buckingham Palace after being crowned monarchs at the coronation ceremony in Westminster Abbey.
Charles was crowned Saturday at Westminster Abbey, receiving the bejeweled St. Edward's Crown in a ceremony built on ancient tradition at a time when the monarchy is striving to remain relevant in a fractured modern Britain.
Trumpets sounded inside the medieval abbey and the congregation shouted "God save the king!" at a service attended by more than 2,000 guests, including world leaders, aristocrats and celebrities.
Outside, thousands of troops, tens of thousands of spectators and a smattering of protesters converged.
It was the culmination of a seven-decade journey for Charles from heir to monarch.

They travelled in the Gold State Coach which has been part every Coronation since that of William IV in 1831.

Newly-crowned monarchs King Charles and Queen Camilla made their way back to the Buckingham Palace after their coronation at the Westminster Abbey with a large procession accompanying them.&nbsp;
Called 'The Coronation Procession' it included Armed Forces from across the Commonwealth and the British Overseas Territories, and all Services of the Armed Forces of the United Kingdom, alongside The Sovereign&rsquo;s Bodyguard and Royal Watermen.
They travelled in the Gold State Coach. The coach, last seen during the Pageant of the Platinum Jubilee of Queen Elizabeth II in June 2022, was commissioned in 1760 and was first used by King George III, to travel to the State Opening of Parliament in 1762. The coach has been used at every Coronation since that of William IV in 1831. The coach was drawn by eight Windsor Greys and, due to its weight of four tonnes, moved at walking pace.

The new Bible was commissioned for the Service by Lambeth Palace.

King Charles III takes oath as new British monarch | Watch

With his hand on the Holy Bible, King Charles III took oath as the new monarch of Britain. 

The new Bible was commissioned for the Service by Lambeth Palace.

With his hand on the Holy Bible, King Charles III took oath as the new monarch of Britain.&nbsp;
The Archbishop of Canterbury administered the Coronation Oath -- a legal requirement and asked King Charles, 74, to confirm that he would uphold the law and the Church of England during his reign.
The King then placed his hand on the Holy Gospel and pledged to "perform and keep" his promises.
There has been a deliberate attempt to make the Coronation a more multifaith and diverse ceremony, alongside what is essentially a Christian church service.
The King was presented with the Holy Bible by the Moderator of the General Assembly of the Church of Scotland. The new Bible was commissioned for the Service by Lambeth Palace. After the oath, he signed copies presented by the Lord Chamberlain, as the choir sang an anthem by William Byrd. Having taken The Oath, the King knelt before the High Altar and prayed aloud.
The words of his prayer have been inspired by the hymn, &lsquo;I vow to thee, my country&rsquo;, in a continuation of the theme of service.&nbsp;

Chants of 'God Save the King' filled the Westminster Abbey as Charles was crowned the new king of Britain. The Archbishop of Cantebury placed the royal orb and sceptres in the monarch's hands before placing the St Edward's crown on his head. The Queen Consort was crowned Queen Camilla with St Mary's crown.&nbsp;
The religious ceremony was made up of five key stages: the Recognition; the Oath; the Anointing; the Investiture and Crowning; and the Enthronement and Homage.
The King was crowned with St Edward's crown which was later replaced with the Imperial State Crown
"The Imperial State Crown, or Crown of State, is the crown the monarch exchanges for St. Edward's Crown at the end of the Coronation Service. The Imperial State Crown is also used on ceremonial occasions, such as the State Opening of Parliament,&rdquo; the palace revealed.
Queen Camilla wore Queen Mary's crown, which was designed for the coronation of June 1911 when it contained three large diamonds, including the controversial Kohinoor which was later replaced by crystal replicas. The modern version designed for 75-year-old Camilla is minus the Kohinoor and made of a silver frame, lined with gold, and set with 2,200 diamonds, mainly brilliant-cut with some rose-cut.
While she was &ldquo;anointed&rdquo; with holy oil in full public view, Charles was anointed behind a cloth screen depicting a central design of a tree with branches filled with 56 leaves representing the Commonwealth of nations &ndash; including one of the leaves dedicated to India. The holy Chrism oil consecrated at the Church of the Holy Sepulchre in Jerusalem was symbolically touched to the monarch&rsquo;s head, chest and hands as part of the religious ceremony.

King Charles III’s coronation screen to have Commonwealth symbolism

The cloth screen to be used for the most sacred part of the religious ceremony at the Coronation of King Charles III at Westminster Abbey in London on May 6 will have strong Commonwealth symbolism

A screen or canopy is placed in between the attendees of the coronation and the monarch for the anointment, historically regarded as a moment of sanctity between the Sovereign and God.&nbsp;

The cloth screen to be used for the most sacred part of the religious ceremony at the Coronation of King Charles III at Westminster Abbey in London on May 6 will have strong Commonwealth symbolism with each of the member-country names, including India, sewn into the fabric, Buckingham Palace has revealed.
The "anointing screen" was unveiled this weekend to show a central design of a tree with branches filled with 56 leaves representing the Commonwealth nations, which the palace said is reflective of the 74-year-old monarch&rsquo;s "deep affection" for the organisation.
The anointing, historically regarded as a moment between the Sovereign and God with a screen or canopy in place given its sanctity, takes place before the crowning of a British monarch.
&ldquo;Each and every element of the design has been specifically chosen to symbolise aspects of this historic Coronation and the Commonwealth, from the birds that symbolise the joy and interaction among members of a community living in harmony, to the rejoicing angels and the dove that represents the Holy Spirit,&rdquo; said Aidan Hart, the Designer and Iconographer behind the project.
During the anointing ceremony, the Dean of Westminster pours holy oil from the Ampulla into the Coronation Spoon, and the Archbishop of Canterbury anoints the Sovereign on the hands, chest and head. Ahead of the big day next Saturday, the screen was blessed at a special service of dedication at the Chapel Royal at St. James&rsquo;s Palace in London.
The individual leaves were embroidered by staff and students from the Royal School of Needlework, as well as members of the Worshipful Company of Broderers, Drapers and Weavers.
&ldquo;It has been a wonderful collaborative project to be involved with, and an exciting celebration of craft techniques. The leaves were a particular pleasure as they were worked on by multiple embroiderers,&rdquo; said Anne Butcher, Head of Studio and Standards at the Royal School of Needlework.
The materials used to create the screen have also been &ldquo;sourced sustainably&rdquo; from across the UK and other Commonwealth nations, with the cloth made of wool from Australia and New Zealand and woven and finished in UK mills. The script used for the names of each Commonwealth country has been designed as modern and classical, inspired by both the Roman Trojan column letters and the work of Welsh calligrapher David Jones.
The palace revealed that the screen combines traditional and contemporary sustainable embroidery practices and has been gifted for the occasion by the City of London Corporation and City Livery Companies.
&ldquo;While many things have changed since the last Coronation, one thing that remains the same is the City&rsquo;s unstinting loyalty to and support for the Monarchy,&rdquo; said Nicholas Lyons, the Lord Mayor of the City of London.
The screen is supported by a wooden pole framework, designed and created by Nick Gutfreund of the Worshipful Company of Carpenters, and the oak wooden poles are made from a windblown tree from the Windsor Estate, which was originally planted by the Duke of Northumberland in 1765.
&ldquo;I&rsquo;m so pleased we were able to use sustainable materials at the heart of the screen, including using a windblown tree from the Windsor Estate for the wooden frame,&rdquo; said Project Lead Nick Gutfreund.
Also forming part of the Commonwealth tree are the King&rsquo;s Cypher, decorative roses, angels and a scroll. The screen is three-sided, with the open side to face the High Altar in Westminster Abbey. The two sides of the screen feature a much simpler design than the front, with maroon fabric and a gold, blue and red cross.

The stone was returned to Scotland in 1996 on the condition that it would return to Westminster Abbey for future coronation ceremonies.

The stone was returned to Scotland in 1996 on the condition that it would return to Westminster Abbey for future coronation ceremonies.&nbsp;

The coronation stone or Scotland's 'Stone of Destiny' is back in London's Westminster Abbey after 25 years. It was moved from Edinburgh Castle on April 28 ahead of the coronation of King Charles III on May 6.&nbsp;
The 125 kg red sandstone slab, also known as 'Stone of Scone' is an ancient symbol of Scotland's monarchy,
The stone was used for the coronation of their kings for hundreds of years before being taken by England's King Edward I in 1296.&nbsp;
It became a part of the coronation chair on which British monarchs are crowned and remained in England for 700 years. 26 British kings and queens have been crowned since.&nbsp;
1950, a group of students from Glasgow stole the stone from Westminster and took it back to Scotland. It was returned to England in 1951. Two years later, the stone was part of the coronation of late Queen Elizabath II.&nbsp;
The stone was returned to Scotland in 1996 on the condition that it would return to Westminster Abbey for future coronation ceremonies.&nbsp;

A ceremonial silver cross containing shards said by the Vatican to be from the cross used to crucify Jesus Christ was blessed on Wednesday, before its use in King Charles III's coronation early next month.
Pope Francis gave the two fragments of the "True Cross", one 5 millimetres long and the other 1 centimetre, as a gift to mark the crowning of the monarch and his wife Camilla as queen on May 6.
They have been fashioned into a tiny cross and incorporated into the overall design, visible behind a rose crystal gemstone.
The Archbishop of Wales, Andrew John, blessed the new Cross of Wales before dignitaries and parishioners at a service in Llandudno, north Wales.
It will now be taken to London and be carried at the head of the coronation procession.
The archbishop said the cross "speaks to our Christian faith, our heritage, our resources and our commitment to sustainability".
"We are delighted too that its first use will be to guide Their Majesties (Charles and Camilla) into Westminster Abbey at the coronation service."
Charles presented the Cross of Wales to the Anglican Church in Wales to mark its centenary.
It took designer Michael Lloyd two years to make and was crafted from recycled silver bullion, with fragments of Welsh timber and slate.
After the coronation, it will be shared by the Anglican and Roman Catholic churches in Wales.

The palace added that it was supporting an independent research on the subject. 

King Charles III backs review into royal family’s slavery link

King Charles III has for the first time signalled his support for research into the British monarchy’s historical links with slavery.

The palace added that it was supporting an independent research on the subject.&nbsp;

King Charles III has for the first time signalled his support for research into the British monarchy&rsquo;s historical links with slavery.
Buckingham Palace said in a statement on Thursday in response to "The Guardian" newspaper that the 74-year-old monarch took the issue of slavery "profoundly seriously".
It marks the first royal endorsement of its kind as it emerged that independent research is underway to explore the historic links between royalty and slave trading.
"This is an issue that His Majesty takes profoundly seriously," notes the Buckingham Palace statement.
"As His Majesty told the Commonwealth Heads of Government Reception in Rwanda last year: 'I cannot describe the depths of my personal sorrow at the suffering of so many, as I continue to deepen my own understanding of slavery's enduring impact'. That process has continued with vigour and determination since His Majesty's Accession," it said.
It comes after "The Guardian" published a previously unseen document showing links between a slave trading company and a 17th century ancestor of King Charles.

The document shows that the deputy governor of the slave-trading Royal African Company transferred 1,000 pounds of shares in the business to King William III in 1689.
The palace added: &ldquo;Historic Royal Palaces is a partner in an independent research project, which began in October last year, that is exploring, among other issues, the links between the British monarchy and the transatlantic slave trade during the late 17th and 18th centuries.
&ldquo;As part of that drive, the Royal Household is supporting this research through access to the Royal Collection and the Royal Archives. Given the complexities of the issues it is important to explore them as thoroughly as possible," it added.
It is expected that the research, also involving Manchester University, would be concluded by September 2026.&nbsp;

Visitors to London's Westminster Abbey will be allowed to stand for the first time on the exact spot where King Charles III will be crowned &mdash; though after the coronation. And they will need to make sure they don't have holes in their socks for the shoeless tour, meant to protect the abbey's medieval mosaic floor.
Abbey officials said Friday that the section of the church's floor known as the Cosmati pavement, where the coronation chair has been placed for some 700 years, will be on display during Charles' crowning ceremony after being hidden away under carpets for decades because of disrepair.
The pavement area, normally roped off to the public, will be open to small guided &ldquo;barefoot tours&rdquo; after the May 6 coronation. Visitors will be asked to remove their shoes to avoid wear and tear to the now-conserved floor.
&ldquo;Standing on the pavement and feeling that sense of awe of being in the central part of the abbey is a really amazing experience," said Scott Craddock, head of visitor experience at the abbey. &ldquo;It will give people the opportunity to feel what it's like being at that center stage of the coronation.&rdquo; The intricate mosaic of marble, stone, glass and metal, located in front of the abbey's high altar, was commissioned by Henry III in the 1200s and made by Italian craftsmen and English masons.
It is where English &mdash; and, later, British &mdash; coronations have taken place ever since, but the area was covered by carpet at many previous coronations, including those of Elizabeth II in 1953 and her father, George VI, in 1937.
It is said to be the best surviving example outside Italy of a rare type of mosaic stonework known as &ldquo;Cosmati,&rdquo; after the Italian family which created it. The mosaic was restored to its former glory after a two-year conservation project was completed in 2010.
&ldquo;It's a unique piece of art to Westminster Abbey but also to Britain itself &mdash; there are no other mosaic pavements like this in the U.K.,&rdquo; said Vanessa Simeoni, the abbey's head conservator.
Experts from the abbey will guide the tours, which will run on some days from May 15 to July 29.&nbsp;

Kohinoor to be shown as ‘symbol of conquest’ in new Tower of London exhibition

The Kohinoor diamond will take centre-stage as a “symbol of conquest” as part of a new display of Britain’s Crown Jewels at the Tower of London.

The new exhibition will open just weeks after the Coronation of King Charles.

The controversial colonial-era Kohinoor diamond claimed by India take centre-stage as a &ldquo;symbol of conquest&rdquo; as part of a new display of Britain&rsquo;s Crown Jewels at the Tower of London set to open to the public in May.
Historic Royal Palaces (HRP), the charity that manages Britain&rsquo;s palaces, said this week that the new Jewel House exhibition will explore the history of the Kohinoor &ndash; also known as Koh-i-Noor &ndash; through a combination of objects and visual projections.
The infamous diamond, which is set within the Crown of the mother of the late Queen Elizabeth II, remains within the Tower after Camilla &ndash; in a diplomatic move &ndash; chose not to use this traditional crown for her coronation with King Charles II on May 6.
Kohinoor, which means mountain of light in Persian, came into Queen Victoria&rsquo;s possession from the treasury of Maharaja Ranjit Singh a few years before she was to be crowned empress of India and has played a starring role in British coronations of the past.
The new exhibition will open just weeks after the Coronation of King Charles and Queen Camilla, who will be crowned with the Queen Mary Crown.

Coronation ceremony: Charles to be crowned King with holy oil from Jerusalem

It was consecrated by the Patriarch of Jerusalem, His Beatitude Patriarch Theophilos III, and the Anglican Archbishop in Jerusalem, the Most Reverend Hosam Naoum, in a ceremony in Jerusalem on Friday.

The holy oil to be used to crown Charles as King of the United Kingdom during his coronation ceremony on May 6 has been consecrated at a ceremony in the Church of the Holy Sepulchre in Jerusalem, Buckingham Palace said on Saturday.
The Chrism oil will be symbolically touched to the 74-year-old monarch&rsquo;s head, chest and hands as part of the religious ceremony at Westminster Abbey in London during his coronation as King Charles III.
His wife, Camilla, will also be anointed Queen Consort with the same holy oil.
The palace said that the oil has been created using olives harvested from two groves on the Mount of Olives at the Monastery of Mary Magdalene and the Monastery of the Ascension in the city in western Asia, the burial place of the King&rsquo;s grandmother Princess Alice of Greece.
"The olives were pressed just outside Bethlehem and the oil has been perfumed with essential oils &ndash; sesame, rose, jasmine, cinnamon, neroli, benzoin and amber &ndash; as well as orange blossom," the palace said.
