English Heritage has announced that Wellington Arch at Hyde Park Corner, London, will become the capital's "latest exhibition space" when it reopens to the public on 9 May.

A "fast-changing" programme of exhibitions will be hosted at The Quadriga Gallery, which will examine the history of England and the history of the landmark structure itself.

Meanwhile, visitors will also be able to access the balconies on top of Wellington Arch and experience the views overlooking the Royal Parks and Horse Guards Parade.

English Heritage chief executive Simon Thurley said: "We hope that the new gallery will become a popular venue for people interested in England's history and heritage."
