William Shakespeare's tombstone is set for a makeover - despite bearing a curse against those who move it.
The grave is being restored as part of extensive repairs at Holy Trinity Church in Stratford-on-Avon, Warks.
The stone, which renovators say will not be moved, warns: "Blessed be the man that spares these stones/ And cursed be he who moves my bones."
Shakespeare, who was baptised and buried at the church, is thought to have penned the warning epitaph.
The Bard's words have warned off the curious for almost four centuries as well as sending a plea to modern developers.
He was baptised at Holy Trinity in April 1564 and buried there 52 years later.
His grave slab in the chancel and a memorial to him are visited by thousands of tourists every year.
