The mural, lambeg drum and bench will be a lasting reminder of Her Late Majesty, and as one would expect all aspects of this commemoration have been completed to the very highest standards. The Lodge have provided a beautiful tribute for the entire community.

 

As we look towards the upcoming Coronation, it will be a time to remember too our much loved Queen Elizabeth II, whilst also celebrating the coronation of King Charles III. I know in communities across Upper Bann people will be coming together at this historic time, and I commend all those involved in facilitating both memorial of a loved monarch, and the coronation of our new King.”
